Mommy's Girl...

Yesterday was our one month doctors appointment - of course I had to put her in her

Mommy's girl outfit!

It went well... I was worried about her weight - her last appointment she weighed 6 lbs 11 oz

this time she weighed 7 lbs 11 oz - so she gained a pound but she's not really where she needs to be - her birth weight was 6 lbs 14 oz.

so now comes the decision - to introduce formula or to not introduce formula.

doc said it was up to me - he wasn't too worried... at least not like momma!  

So... bottle here we come.  Two nights ago we gave her a bottle - half formula and half BM -

Dray got to feed her for the first time - LOVED it!!  

She slept for 6 hours after that feeding - she drank 4 oz... wow... she's quite the piggy!  Now I'm hoping to see her put on some weight.  What worries me is she's not getting enough during the day from me... I'm sure all new moms think this and wonder... question is... is stressing about it worth it?!?

oh yea... first shot... at least first shot with me watching... wow, that was painful!  She'll get her first 'set' of shots at her 2 month visit - I've already instructed Dray he will be the one taking her :)

So far so good... motherhood is a blessing but straining!  I'm hoping my hardheadedness and my want to make everything perfect will go away - it doesn't have to be perfect for everyone else - just for me and my family!!!

We're excited to see Nana and Grandpa next week!  Dray will be out of town Monday thru Thursday - I managed to get through one night by myself but I'm not sure my sanity can take 3 nights!!!

I'll be sure to take pictures - I've got to get better at that!!
