Liv 2 Months








Liv TWO Months

8 week stats:
Head 38.5 cm; 67%
Length 23 in; 82%
Weight 11lb 10oz; 65%

When Liv was born, one of the nurses mentioned that Liv's tongue seemed to be tied, suggesting that she was "tongue tied". So at her 1 week check up we asked Blanke about it. He wasn't concerned since she was growing and it wasn't affecting me when I fed her. Jamie and I were still concerned about it as the weeks went on bc it is noticeably tied and we'd rather clip it while she was young. We talked to Blanke about it again at her 8 week check up. He reassured me that she was fine and an ENT wouldn't clip it as long as she was growing. The next time we will reevaluate clipping it is when she begins talking, about 12 months. If it affects her speech then he'll refer us to an ENT. In the meantime it could correct itself naturally or traumatically (hopefully not the latter!)

Sample Sleeping Schedule:

5 weeks:
7pm last feeding
9pm dream feed (I wake her up to eat)
2:30 she woke, fed
6:30 she woke, fed, back to sleep
8:30 wake, fed

6 weeks:
8:30 last feeding
10:30 dream feed
3:00 she woke, fed
7:00 wake, fed

7 weeks:
7 last feeding
10:30 dream feed
6 she woke, fed
7:45 wake, fed

8 weeks:
7 last feeding
11 dream feed
7:15 wake, fed

This child spits up a lot! and has a blow out at nearly every feeding! It keeps me very busy and frustrated!! However she is the happiest child ever! Which I tell her makes up for the messes she makes.
