Kyndall had her 2 month check-up today!

Now that we've had her home for 5 weeks, we had a lot of questions for our pediatrician at this visit! It's amazing how this baby girl is so different than our first! We're trying to learn as much as we can so we can take the best care of her. Recently she has started squirming around and seeming really uncomfortable after eating and we can't seem to figure out how to calm her down. Our pediatrician told us it is not uncommon that a baby that is premature would have some irritability with their digestive system and she could also have acid reflux. We are hoping the prescription Zantac will help ease her pain until her body grows out of this. Poor thing! |

YES this is Kyndall, and YES this is her weight! We still can't believe it either! Wow, our God is a GREAT God! We are still laughing at ourselves and how we have so underestimated our little "rock star"!! We were telling people she was probably 6lbs or so now...never in our wildest dreams thinking she was over 8lbs already! Woo Hoo! Since birth, she has been given a calorie booster by Similac, called Neosure. It is for preemie babies and you add a tiny bit to their milk to help them fatten up! Well, obviously she doesn't need any more assistance in that department, so we are happy we get to stop adding that to the milk. We do still have a multi-vitamin with iron that we give her once a day and we'll continue that for her 1st yr. We were excited to learn that she is off the preemie growth charts now and is 3% as far as the average weight of her age on the normal full-term baby growth chart! |

Poor Lily, she knew we were at the doctor office today and when Dr. G left the room, she knew it was time for the nurse to come in and give shots! We tried to explain to her that sister was getting shots, not her! She was relieved to leave the room and not be pricked with a needle! |

Proud mommy of her growing baby girl! |

We are still getting only 2-3 hrs of sleep each night (4 if we're lucky!), so any prayers for Miss Kyndall to get her days and nights figured out would be much appreciated! ha ha
We are told it may take her a little longer to adjust...we just hope it's soon! She likes to snooze during the day and party all night! Wish we could party with her, but we're pooped!
