Ildri saw the pediatrician today to be weighed - we have been tracking her growth closely since Mom has had problems with her milk supply. She had been weighed four times before we left Chicago: she was 9 pounds, 3 ounces at birth; 8 pounds, 13 ounces when we left the hospital; 9 pounds during her 1 week check-up and 9 pounds, 5 ounces at almost 2 weeks old. Today, our 5-week-old darling daughter weighed in at 11 pounds, 15 ounces. Wow. She's also 22.5 inches long, putting her in the 95th percentile for weight, and the 90th percentile for length.
The best news was that we no longer have to wake Ildri up for feedings every 3 hours. Mom and Dad are looking forward to a little more sleep (fingers crossed).
