Millie's Milestones

Day 82 - Chubby cheeks

Millie went to the health visitor again yesterday.

She now weighs 2.880kg (6lbs 6 ounces), which is quite amazing.

It fits exactly with a trend chart drawn up by daddy on 25 April.

Millie's chubby cheeks are growing and so is her double chin.

It's a far cry from the day she was born when she had virtually no body fat at all.

Using our trend chart we expect Millie to reach the 7lb milestone on 19 May.

Today, Millie is going to the hospital to have her iron levels checked again.

This is a routine visit, and we're hoping her iron levels will have risen a bit more.

Meanwhile, the sleepless nights continue.

We had a rare good night last night, and were woken only twice for feeds.

Usually it is a case of not getting much sleep at all due to crying.

It's hard work, but Millie is definitely worth it!
