Brooklyn's 2 Week Check Up

Brooklyn had her two week check up with Dr Beard on Monday, December 15, 2008. Her daddy and I took her in together to make sure everything was going ok due to the previous problems we had with her being jaundice and losing weight. So the end results... Brooklyn had gained more weight. She was up to 6 pounds 10 ounces at that point. She hadn't grown any in length yet, but Dr. Beard said that was fine and that Brooklyn looked and was going great! She told us we could go back to a regular feeding schedule and that she didn't need to see us back again until her two month check up in February when she would need to start her immunizations (which momma is NOT looking forward to!)

I'm sure there was other discussion with Dr. Beard about other issues and questions we may have had at the time. Seeing how Brooklyn is currently 6 weeks old now though, I do not remember them. The important part though was that she was gaining weight and was a healthy baby at two weeks.

Love,
