What has Molly been up to this month: (Brooklyn's 1st month update is here)
- Molly's first doctors appointment was on 10/7
- she got her tongue snipped-she was tongue tied and not nursing well.
- she weighed 7 pounds 12 ounces at 4 days old!
- she has a small heart murmur-we will continue to follow up! 80% of newborns have heart murmurs when they are born, most go away...
- First outing was to Babies R Us
- She is a very noisy nurser!
- Her umbilical cord fell off on her 1 week birthday!
- 10/15 was her second doctors appointment (2 week appointment):
- weighed 8 pounds 7 ounces! Big girl!
- heart murmur is GONE!! Thank you Jesus!!
- On 10/22 we went to the doctor for acid reflux (just like big sister)
- started baby zantac twice a day
- Left eye started getting watery and green yucky stuff-at first we thought this was the first signs of a clogged tear duct, just like big sister. Turns out, it was a virus Molly had. She was sick for about 2 weeks. She had a yucky eye and a horrible stuffy nose. It was very difficult for her to breathe. We did a lot of suctioning and nursing was hard!
- every day she is awake more and more, very alert with big eyes!
- 1st Halloween, dressed up as a flower!
- Mommy and daddy went out already, to a wedding! Nana watched both girls by herself!
- When she cries she sounds like a dinosaur! Pterodactyl as daddy calls it!
- So far, she is an easy baby...we will see what the next month brings!!
