2 months old!



Megan had her 2 month check up and is up to 11 pounds...15 oz. She's in the 90% for length and now 75% for weight. She got a few shots so she wasn't feeling too happy.

So here we are at two months. She's sleeping for good stretches at night, and she's napping routinely during the day. Her appetite is very strong, though when she's full she lets you know it and won't eat anymore. She also is taking the pacifier better now, however when she's had enough of it she'll spit it out and refuse to take it. Actually, we're very pleased she's not that attached to the pacifier right now. It will make life easier down the road...

Anyway, she smiles a lot when we change her on the changing table. That seems to be her "happy" time for some reason. She also likes to look at people's faces a lot. We're still having the occasional meltdown at night, but it's usually shortlived.

I'd say the only issue we're having is still with the bottle. She went for about a week taking the bottle from me just fine. Then over the weekend last weekend Jenny nursed her pretty much all weekend. Then early this past week Megan fought me quite a bit taking the bottle. After a full week of the bottle Megan settled back down and started taking it again. I guess we're finding out that the key is to remind her about the bottle over the weekend as well.

So anyway...that's about the latest. I'd say overall she's settling in nicely.
