She's officially out of all newborn clothes, and has been for a few weeks. If we were doing disposable diapers, she'd still be in a size 1, but we're going strong with the fluff!MC was diagnosed with reflux a little over a week ago. It's been a relief to figure that out, because there were quiet a few evenings that DJ and I were going batty with her crying, and not to mention the times in the car that she would scream.
She's taking axid for the reflux and it's getting better. I was able to make a trip to my parents by myself, and she did very well. We had one evening of crying last week when her belly hurt, but since then, we haven't had any.
Over the last month, MC has visited her Gee and Grandpa two times. We've also visited two churches here and visited Gee and Grandpa's church, celebrated my 29th birthday, and her daddy's 31st birthday.
MC has also been swimming and she really does enjoy the water!
Most of the time, she'll sleep from 11 pm to 4 am, and then she's back up around 6, and then will go back down until I get her up between 8 and 9 am. She naps in her swing during the day, and sometimes in her pac n play. Last week, she slept in her crib for the first time for about an hour.
MC eats every 3 hours, although sometimes it's every 2 hours or every 2 1/2, and on occassion, she'll go 3 1/2 hours between eating. But, my goal is for her to eat every 3 hours.
She is holding her head up more and she has started to coo and to smile in response.
We go to the pediatrician tomorrow, so i'm not sure of her exact height or weight, but at our appointment two weeks ago, she was a little over eleven pounds.
MC has made a wonderful addition to our family. And, although there are times where I feel like I could go insane, I wouldn't change it. This month has been trying and stressful but it's also been enjoyable and fun! Some of my favorite moments are just cuddling with MC while G is napping, and wearing her in the sling.
