This morning Abigail had her one month checkup with Dr. Bob.
She is definitely healthy, weighing a whopping 9lbs 5oz now. That's more than 3lbs over her birthweight. Her length is 20" and her head is 14 1/2 cm around. He was talking about being able to skip a feeding during the night now and said that I don't have to set my alarm now. I thought, "People set their alarms for feedings and their babies sleep more than 3 hours at a time? Not my baby. Alarm? I feed on demand."
Dr. Bob said that it's okay if I let her sleep 10 hours one night, but not all the time.
Abigail has not yet slept for more than 3 hours at a time. Dr. Bob is a goofy guy and told me that Abigail is part of his "Super Secret Club," so she should be able to get in to see him whenever she wants. He also gave me the names of good doctors who have worked with children alot and the name of one doctor that I should avoid bringing Abigail to if at all possible.
