doctor's appointment

i had my 1st doctor's appointment today. it was also my very first outing. it was about time! i've been cooped up in the house for almost 2 weeks. i was getting a little shack wacky.

mom was kinda nervous about the whole thing. she was mostly worried that i'd get hungry while we were at the doctor's office. as we were sitting in the waiting room she suddenly got her wits about her and remembered - she forgot the diaper bag at home!! so dad had to go back and get it. as nanny b would say, that lady needs to "chillax"!

as it turns out, i didn't get hungry at the doctor's office at all. i had eaten about an hour beforehand. good thinking, mom!

the doctor was very nice and said that she loved my name! so i decided to be nice back. i didn't cry once until the very end of the appointment. let's see how much poking and prodding YOU can put up with before you start getting cranky!

everything is looking great. i weigh 8 lbs 13 oz!! the doctor said that was excellent. at 2 weeks it's important for breastfed babies to be back up to their birth weight. well i showed my birth weight who's boss!

after the doctor's appointment we went to visit nana and grampy m for a little while. my 1st appointment and 1st visit out all in one day! mom hopes i sleep well tonight. we'll see about that...

  1. Give your mom some time, Miss Charlotte. In another couple of month's she'll be whippin' that boob out whenever you decide you want some - no matter where you are!

  2. Try not to laugh at your mom for being nervous and forgetful, your first doctors appointment and outing is a lot for one day! Your parents must be relieved that you had such good checkup. And as far as crying at the very end, I can't blame you! Personally I would let it go at the beginning next time - just let 'er rip! It will make break their hearts, and just might get you off the hook for a lot of things ;)
