First Pediatrician Visit!!


Khloe had her first pediatrician appointment yesterday! David took the day off so he could be with us all day :) We got there, received all of the paperwork to fill out and we got called right away! She now weighs 5 lbs 15 oz so she's really close to 6 lbs. now! Upon measuring her, they said 18.5 inches and I know she's not shrinking :)...when born they said she was 19 inches! So we finally get seen by a pediatrician, not her actual doctor since the NICU doctor wanted her to be seen in a week and her doctor didn't have anything available! According to him, everything is perfect and she is healthy! It was great to hear...We go back for her vaccines on March 5th (it will probably be harder on me than her since I hate needles!) On our way out, we saw the doctor that delivered her! (Her pediatrician and my OB are in the same building) She said that her pacifier looked bigger than her :) how cute! We then went to the hospital to return the breast pump we had rented (since someone we know was kind enough to give us their electrical Medela pump) :) thanks!!! After the hospital we went to the bank and then to Babies R Us! We bought some really great things that were on SALE ranging from $0.50 to $2.00! Luckily we were able to find a few preemie outfits at those prices :) Here is a picture of Khloe when we were in the car on the way to the pediatrician...Notice the hoodie and how big it is on her! Believe it or not, that's a newborn size outfit!

So glad to hear everything went great at her 1st visit... ;o) Don't worry about the needles... if you do, just think that some babies go thru a LOT worse things ;o) And by the way, where is the picture that you said? Maybe you just forgot to post... ;o) Kisses, Heloisa
