Allie's 1 Week Appointment

We took Allie in for her 1 week appointment today. She is doing great! Dr. Bichir said that he was very, very pleased with how she checked out for being so early. She weighed 7 lbs (30th percentile), 20 inches long (50th percentile) and head was 13.25 in (10th percentile). He said he loved her numbers, especially because she is getting compared to full term babies. Allie rarely cries, but did a little during her appointment. Noah kept saying to her "Aww, it's okay baby Allie, I am here!" So, so sweet! After the appointment, it was almost time for Allie to eat but we decided to still go eat at Chick-fil-a. Terry & I laughed because we hardly even left the house when Noah was a newborn, much less close to a feeding! I remember feeling trapped inside with him but Allie is so laid back and so far going from 1 to 2 kiddos has seemed pretty easy! KNOCK on wood! :)

YEAH for healthy Allie! I agree! The second was easier for us too. The first one felt like a mac truck hit us. Not because of Sam but just because we didn't know what to expect! :)
