2 weeks!!

Well, we had our big 2 week check up this morning. Aubrey's definitely eating well!! They want babies to be back at their birth weight by 2 weeks, which would be 6 pounds, 8 ounces. She came in at 7 pounds, 11 ounces!! That made mom feel very reassured that the nursing is going well after all :) Aubrey's in the 25th percentile for weight and height, so she's doing well! I wanted to talk to the doctor about the congestion problem we've been having. But when he looked at her ears he informed that she she all ready has a double ear infection!! I've never heard of such a young baby having that problem!! The doc said that it means we may have some real issues with her ears - great!! She also had an infected tear duct. SO, we're trying antibiotics all ready and go back in 2 weeks!

We determined that Aubrey was allergic to the bassinet. I'm not sure why, but everytime we put her down in it she would get so congested that she would choke on gunk. But when we took her out she would breathe fine, so she's been sleeping in her crib for the last 3 nights. We borrowed the bassinet from my friend Erin who has 2 cats. I asked the doc if she could be that allergic to cats at such a young age, and he said it's a possibility. Either way, she does fine in the crib. She's been getting better about sleeping, and only got up 2 times last night. I can't believe how quiet and content she is, especially considering the ear infections!! We're still crossing our fingers that she stays this happy!

I"ll post some new pics soon!
