Dr.'s appointment

[rghkah38]

I had to take Stella to the doctors yesterday because she has baby acne on her face and head and the dr. just wanted to make sure that was the problem.  Well, when we were at the dr.'s she got weighed and she gained one pound in one week.  I was so happy.  She now weighs 8lbs 8 ozs.  The dr. told me I can stop waking her up at night and let her wake me up when she is hungry.  It actually made me nervous not setting my alarm clock because I'm so used to waking up every 2 to 3 hours to feed and change her.  She did get me up a couple of times last night.  I guess also I don't want her to sleep too long when she has a dirty diaper.  I guess everything about not waking her up at night makes me nervous and I didn't think I would be.

My son had baby acne, 1% Hydrocortisone cream clears it right up!

Trust me sleep if she let's you! If she needs you she will let you know loud and clear!

Enjoy that little girl!

Good job!  I hope you can get your rest and longer naps at night.

Wow, sounds like she's growing like a weed. Try to relax and enjoy sleeping.
