As you all know, Zoe went to the doctor yesterday and got her platelets checked.  Well, she also got her weight checked…when she was born she was 7 lb 3 oz, then she lost about 6% of her weight (pretty normal for a baby waiting for mommy’s breast milk to come in.)  Then she got back to her birth weight in about 3 days (very fast), and on her last visit she was at 7 lb 7 oz (again a quick weight gain for less than a week of life.)  So, back to the doctor appointment…only 2 days after her last weight check, she weighed in at 7 lb 14 oz!  As the doctor says, looks like she is getting plenty of milk.

To show you guys how much bigger she is, we decided to take a picture next to her Lou Seal doll again.  You can compare the results with the “So happy!” post below.
