I had a girl, Brett, on October 15th. My birth was long (70 hours) but wonderful. She was 7 lbs 3 oz, and at 9 weeks now is 10 lbs 15 oz.
She has reddish hair like I do and her other features are a lot like mine... but makes all her dad's expressions so she looks just like him.
She's an incredibly happy and easy-going baby. She has a grumpy spell each evening, but otherwise is either sleeping or smiling.
Breastfeeding had a rocky start for us, because I had CRAZY letdown (I could shoot well over three feet!) and she had a tie on her top-lip. Once those were solved though, it's been terrific. I love BFing!
She's a good sleeper - I get a five hour stretch and a three hour stretch, then she sleeps for three more when I get up in the morning :) We cosleep at night and I love that too.
Here we are at 12 days old.
And this is 8 weeks, enjoying "Mm-mmp Went the Little Green Frog" in the tub. (She looooves the tub)
She's so beautiful! What great pictures. The top photo is just gorgeous with your matching hair coordinating with the background - it looks like it should be in a magazine.
