We took Gracie in for her 2 week check up and she had only gained 4 ounces in 8 days. She's up to 7 lbs 10 oz now but the Dr. really had wanted her closer to her birth weight. Our new plan is to feed her more and more often. Bad news for me, I'm supposed to now pump every 2 hours. To me that is not even possible. Here were her stats from the Dr.
25% with weight, 95% with height (she grew an inch and a 1/2 !), 40% with her head. We're going back in another week and I'm sure she will have gained more weight. She eats around the clock now. Here is a picture I took of her not wearing a bow! Her shirts says "Daddy does my hair!"

Shannon and Kelly,
Gracie is so cute!!! Don't worry about the numerous feedings, the sleep deprivation, the abundance of dirty diapers, etc... it will get easier as time passes. Well, maybe not the dirty diapers... that will just multiply. :)
Congratulations on the arrival of Gracie! She is beautiful.
Theresa
