Rebecca at 2 months

Rebecca continues to do well.  We went to her 2 month check-up on Monday 2/7 and she weighed 12 lbs 4 ounces, including her harness which the doctor indicated weighs about 1/2 lb.  She measured 22 1/2 inches.  Even adjusting for the harness, she has gained a lot of weight and is growing, which is obvious by just looking at her.  She is a far cry from the tiny little baby we brought home from the hospital at under 7 lbs!

She is sleeping better, taking more naps in her crib.  Still, some days she has trouble napping, waking up after very short naps and eating more frequently than the typical 3 hour interval.  Today she took a fairly short late morning nap but fell asleep right after her1:00 feeding.  I tried to put her down at 1:30 and she woke up crying.  She'd fall asleep as soon as she was back in my arms but would wake up as soon as I put her in the crib.  We tried that twice and then I just held her longer and laid her on the sofa in the boppy, where she has taken quite a long nap and I've had to wake her at 4:15 to eat again, before going to get Benjamin at school.
