Re-weigh

I took Jenna in this morning to get weighed. She now weighs 10 lbs 10 oz, which puts her weight at the 17th %tile (last weight check it was 14th). The doctor said that mainly he wanted to make sure she didn't drop to a lower percentile, so he was happy.

At the visit, we had a discussion about the hives she got earlier this month. Since I reintroduced the formula and Tylenol and she didn't have a reaction, he thinks it is probably a reaction to a vaccine. He is going to send the pictures he took of her to a group that analyzes reactions and provides guidance to doctors. He said that she is the first baby he's seen have a reaction to a vaccine, so it is the first time he's worked with this group, but that they should get back to him within the next few months.

Work, work, work

Yesterday was my first day back to work. I thought it would be a lot more difficult than it was. Of course I missed Jenna like crazy all day, but I knew she was in good hands and I stayed plenty busy at work, so I didn't spend too much time dwelling on what she was doing or what she was wearing, etc and the day ended up going by pretty quickly. I think it also helps knowing that my work week will be done at noon on Wednesday.

I'll try to get a 12 week picture posted this evening. I swear I say it every week, but Jenna's growing so quickly! We go back to the doctor to re-weigh her on Thursday, so hopefully she's growing quickly enough and we won't need to worry about her being underweight anymore. Kim let us borrow an activity center of Jocelyn's. You lay the baby on her back and let her kick and grab at some dangling toys and if she hits the toys it will start playing a tune and 'dancing'. She's really figured it out and will spend a long time laying there kicking it over and over again. I'm not the type that is bothered by loud toys, but I do have to admit that it can get a little annoying to hear after a while. Today she was playing with it when I left and I have had the tune stuck in my head all day long!
