9 Month Followup Appointment

Because Emma was underweight at her 9 Month Dr.'s appointment, the Dr. asked us to change up a few things in her diet and to return in a month to check her weight. So Friday was the day we went back and things are looking really good! Emma weighed 17 pounds, 1 ounce which means she gained almost 2 pounds in the last month!!! The Dr. was kind of amazed at how much weight she had gained - I guess all that cheese, yogurt, avocado and other fun new foods are working for her. I did cut back almost completely on the breastfeeding shortly after her last appointment and so now she is drinking formula for the most part. She is doing really well with it!! :) The Dr. didn't measure her length this time and so I did it myself this morning and she is now 27 1/4 inches. She really seems to be chunking up. I think it is almost time for a size 4 diaper. Haha! So although she is still on the low end of normal, she is doing great and her weight is right back up where it needs to be!
