.........for now at least! We officially returned the scale on Friday. Little C weighed in at 8lbs 10.2 oz on Friday! Funny thing is, today J said, I wish I knew how much she weighs now. We got so used to knowing each day, that we kind of miss it. I think it is for the better though. Making sure that she gained an oz a day was a lot of pressure on me. Now I just feed!! She let's us know when she is hungry. I have turned to an "on demand" feeder, which is SO NOT ME!!! With Little A, it was every 3 hours and then stretched out to every 4 hours. If he cried, I made him wait! Now I am so concerned about her weight gain, I feed her WHENEVER she wants! Funny how things change. The good thing is, she sleeps for 3-5 hours at a time at night. The mornings are pretty rough though, she wants to feed every hour.
No more weight checks at the doctors office either! We will see them at 2 mos. He wants her to weigh 10lbs then. Think we can do it? I sure hope so. He was impressed that she had gained 10oz in a week and a half!

Glad that is over. I always nursed them when they wanted to for the first few months. It seemed to work well. Hope she passes her next mark with flying colors, lol.
