Abs and I had a lactation appointment today so we got her all dressed up in the little outfit from Leah. The appointment went really well, and the lady that was working with us was someone I knew from Pilates!! It was good to see someone from the gym since its been so long since I've been there. . .can't wait to get back! Anyways, Sue thinks Abigail is doing everything correctly, that she just needs to get a little bigger still and she'll have it down. . .so I'll keep practicing with her and soon we should have full on success. Abby is up to 7lbs. 3.9oz. and is actually eating much more than she really needs to so it is okay if we offer a little less --the last thing we had heard was that if we felt like she wanted more bottle then ad a 1/2 an ounce at a time so we did until she hit 4oz--the charts show that she only needs 2 1/2 oz. at her size. I was so glad to hear that because there are times when she only eats 2 1/2 oz. and I was worried she wasn't getting enough food--now I know she is. . .I just wanted to make sure she kept getting bigger but now that she is, we're all good. Our little chunk-o-monk-HA!

That's good news from Sue! I bet Sue was great to work with, she's so nice.
Ummm, LOVE Abby in the outfit...it kind of almost made me cry. She's growing like a weed!
