Elizabeth checked out at the doctor yesterday:
9 lbs 13 ounces (75%)
20 7/8 inches (50%)
The doctor just had a bit of concern over the fact that we’ve been noticing mucus in her dirty diapers. That’s usually a sign of an allergy to milk proteins…so it’s likely that she has a dairy allergy like her brother did. That is pretty much terrible news for a breastfeeding mommy, and I’m not excited at the prospect of going off dairy again for another 11 months! So we are going to wait and see if this continues before I start chugging rice milk. Otherwise, our little girl looked fine and is growing healthy and strong!
Compare her to Tommy at one month:
10 lbs
22 1/4 inches
(Didn’t manage to write down the percentiles in his baby book, but I’m pretty sure he was more in the 95th for height and weight at that age.)
