Miss Piggy

So we went to the doctor today for her two month check up. Her last appointment was three weeks ago and she weighed 6lbs 10oz (remember her birth weight was only 6lbs 8oz). So for the past three weeks we have been supplementing with the preemie formula for the extra calories.

Well, it worked...as of today she's 8lbs 3oz!! We expected to see 7-something, so we are very excited about this. Because it's working so well, we are going to keep giving her the two bottles a day of formula.

Also, last night she slept for 5 and a half hours in her swing! I decided that since she's been sleeping so well at night on her own for the past week, that I would actually go sleep in my bed and use the baby monitor instead of sleeping on the couch. I was very surprised to be woken up at 5am after putting her down at 11:30.

This is good news, I really miss my bed...
