Little Melly went to the doctor yesterday. She was weighed... 9 pounds 4 oz and measured 21.5 in. Which, according to the doctor, puts her in the 20th percentile for body weight and size and the 75th for head size. She also got the first in a series of shots. After her three shots she screamed her poor little head off for thirty five min afterwards. Poor honey. However, one of the immunizations is administered orally...and it was very sugary and she loved it! Lots of lip smacking and smiling. Just like her mama. And the fun part? She now fits in size one diapers and doesn't fit into some of her newborn clothes. So I kept the smallest one she fit into and donated the rest to a poor woman who is having her baby next month and doesn't have family support. See, I'm being so good!
Of course because of the shots she was then cranky all night. Well, all afternoon she was asleep and feverish and then she was up and cranky all night. So this is me... on about three hours of sleep. I kind of want to wake her up every forty five min to show her what it is like. But I'm not that mean. However I did put her into her jumper that says baby on it because she needed to be labeled a baby for the 35 min scream-fest yesterday and then for waking me up all night I put pooh on her head. And because of her big old head, the hat fits perfectly.
And today I went to the OB for the last time... or so I thought it was the last time. But it turns out that I am not healing as well as they want and am now on antibiotics and have to go back in two weeks. Or, not really two weeks since that would be Christmas.so the week after. So, I go back one more time. Hopefully all goes well then because I am tired of hurting.
And now, with all of this over share, I am going to deal with my crying child.
Night.
