Gaining on her
Emmie had her two-week checkup today and despite her schedule, which includes routinely going four hours between feedings and sleeping as long as five hours overnight, she gained almost an entire pound in the last 10 days.
This is so surreal to me after Mr. I Eat Every 90 Minutes blazed the trail. Jack took a full two weeks just to get back to his birth weight and Emmie was there by four days and is now up to 7 lbs 4oz at two weeks. The pediatrician said Emmie clearly knows what she needs in terms of eating and sleeping, so we should let her set the pace and not tell anyone else about her habits because they'll just hate us.
Of course what do I do? Run and blog about it on the interwebs.

Brag away, girl! That's awesome that Emmie is such a good sleeper! My baby girl was a good sleeper, too, which is the most wonderful thing in a second child. :)
HAHA, I love it.
One of my coworkers is pregnant now and she refuses to talk about the pregnancy with anyone who has been pregnant because she hasn't had any of the 'bad' side effects--like morning sickness, cravings, constipation, heart burn, etc. And she won't do it because she's afraid everyone will hate her.
Hate you. :-)
I hope she keeps it up; what a blissful payback for all the sleepless nights you've already gone through! Yay!
