2 month ck-up

Holly had her 2 month ck-up today....although she is almost 10 weeks old. She weighed in at 12.9! He didn't tell me what that ranked her as but when I looked online that put her in the 82nd percentile! Much bigger than Ava was... Ava always stayed in the 50% range. But I also was unable to nurse Ava past 3 weeks.... the Doc says I have good MILK! LOL

I have to say.. I am sad I was unable to nurse Ava the way I am with Holly. I resented Ava during the whole nursing process cuz it hurt so bad and it just wasn't working.. and then I felt like a awful mom when I stopped. I wish I wouldn't have beat myself up about it so much... but at the same time... oh how I wish it would have worked.
I am not one of the moms that looks down on formula fed babies.... Ava was one of them. And I know plenty of nursed kids that are sick all the time... and ones that had formula and never seem to be sick. So I will never judge anyone for not.
But for my own self. There is something so wonderful about nursing Holly. I feel so much more connected to her. I love the fact that can do something for her that no one else can do. How long do I plan on nursing... people have asked... I don't know. I am not putting a limit or time frame on it. I am nervous about when teeth come in :-0 Eekk.. but we will take it one step at a time. But I do know I will miss it when I am done.
I will not however miss pumping at work....worrying about leaking and all the fun stuff that comes along with nursing :-) But to me it is worth it! And since we are planning on this being our last baby.. I am so glad I have gotten to experience this.

Holly has been much better in the colic department! I really don't know what it was... we did the chiro... and a week and half later it seemed to come back.. so then we did meds... but not sure that was it either. We are not giving her anything now and she has been so happy. I am just soaking up her smiles and cooing! This months ahead I am going to cherish forever!
