Anyway... Since I was still in recovery/survival mode when Ruby was zero months, aka freshly hatched, I didn't make a post. And she'll be 8 weeks tomorrow, sooooo I better get on the one month, too!
Here's Ruby at zero:
I made her this hat while taking my glucose tolerance test. She also wore it in the hospital, so I thought it was appropriate for her "zero" pics. |
I'm a mean mommy, but this cracks me up! |
Ruby had her one month well-baby check up on her actual one month birthday. She was already kind of a pro at going to the pedi, unfortunately, since her whole jaundice episode. She really enjoyed herself this time, though, peeing all over the exam table, and checking herself out in the mirror.
Ruby was up to a whopping 8lbs. 5oz., and was 21.25 inches long. Girl has done a lot of growing in one month!!! Seriously, 2.5 pounds, I can't even believe it. That bandage on her thigh is from where she got her second Hep B shot... Yeah, that was bad. I thought she'd be totally fine, since her blood draws always went ok. No. Baby girl screamed the most heartbreaking cries. It took nursing to calm her down. Thank goodness they let you do that. I am NOT looking forward to her two month appointment!
Ruby lost her cord at 7 days old, which meant we were comfortable giving her a real bath (even though they told us at the hospital we could, we started out with sponge baths anyway). She loves bath time! It's really cute! Losing the cord also meant that her cloth diapers fit her a little bit better. The only times she's been in a disposable was at the hospital. We are loving the cloth!
This is probably my favorite picture I have of her right now. Look at that spunk! |
The obligatory crying pic. |
