2 Month Check Up

Friday was Claire's 2 month check up. Dad gave her a niece hairdo at the doctor's office while we were waiting for Dr. Zimmerly! Claire was weighed and measured and continues to grow like a weed: 7 lbs 3 oz now! Personally, I think their scale is a little off since she was 6 lbs 12 oz on Tuesday but regardless she is making great gains. If you adjust her numbers for her prematurity she is between the 25-50% in head circumference and weight and 5% for length. No tall genes in this family! Claire is also advanced for a preemie because she is already meeting her 2 month milestones; that's our girl! She even showed off her neck strength for Dr. Zimmerly. Last up was THREE shots! If you think the two of us didn't do well with the one on Tuesday; it was certainly worse with three. Good thing daddy was there to cuddle Claire and provide me with emotional support. Our girl certainly was not herself all day but after a couple of doses of Tylenol was back to herself by Saturday.
