Well, I realized today that it had been A LONG time since my last blog and update on our Morgan, so I figured I'd take a few minutes to do so while she is napping. She had her 4 month checkup and shots on Jan. 15. and she weighed 13 lbs. 14 oz. and was 24 1/8" long...according to the doctor's chart, she is right at the 50th percentile for her age ( Read more... )

It's been a while since I last posted so I wanted to update everyone on how things are going lately. As of the last blog, the breastfeeding has gotten SO much better. We worked with our lactation consultant a bit and she had some suggestions as well as Morgan's pediatrician and they all have worked tremendously. I think I've found the "happy ( Read more... )

Well, it's been an interesting couple days. I have been unable to nurse Morgan for two days now as I am so sore. Everytime I try to nurse her, I am almost in tears. We have been giving her pumped milk in bottles till I can figure out what to do. I have an appointment with a lactation specialist on Monday so hopefully she can offer some ( Read more... )

Well, it's been a long time again since my last update. We had Morgan's two week appointment this past Monday, Sept. 24. We were amazed to find out that she had gained a lot of weight.

Well, my mom came up for a visit the last couple days to help me get some last minute cleaning and organizing done and it was such a HUGE help! We were able to get the apartment all clean and tidy and the rest of Morgan's things organized and ready for her. Just a couple small odds and ends to tend to and then we are set till she arrives! I am ( Read more... )

Yesterday (Wed. Aug. 29), we had our latest doctor's appointment. I was all excited and nervous at the same time. We were scheduled to have an ultrasound to check Morgan's size and position and then I was scheduled to have my group b strept test done. After having to wait over 30 minutes to get in for our ultrasound (which I was getting antsy, ( Read more... )
