First Pediatrician Visit

Today we had our first visit Audrey's pediatrician. Neal had a meeting at work and I was too chicken to go by myself so my mom went with me. Audrey loves riding in the car and usually falls asleep in the car seat. I also haven't been cleared yet by my doctor to lift her car seat.



The pediatrician was pleased with Audrey's growth and overall health. She weighs 7 lbs 6 oz. She was 7 lbs at birth and 6 lbs 9 oz at hospital discharge. They like for them to be back at their birthweight by 2 weeks of age. We're over the birthweight now. She's in the 26th percentile for weight, 46th percentile for heigth, and 48th percentile for head circumference. We're also going to start giving her Vitamin D drops since breast milk doesn't have a whole lot of Vitamin D in it. After the doctor visit, I changed & fed her then we ventured to Target. She had a mini-meltdown during her inaugural visit to Target. So I made the great escape and took her to the car to nurse her while my mom stood in line to pay. A few people in Target were getting to close to her for my liking so I didn't mind getting out of there. She calmed down so we met Neal for lunch at Pappy's. They sat us in a back corner where a lot of people wouldn't be around her.
