We survived our first double doctor visit and Ruby's first trip out of the house! When we left the hospital they asked us to make a pediatrician appointment on Monday to check Ruby's weight. The funny thing was that I had made Ellie's two year old check up appointment for Monday at 8:30. So I called and they added Ruby to the appointment. Poor doctor!
Jason went with me of course...no way I'll be taking both to the doctor by myself for awhile! The doctor asked Ellie who he should check first and she was very clear that Ruby would be first!
He thought both the girls looked great. Ruby was 8 lbs. 1.5 oz. which is up already from her low point at the hospital. He gave us the thumbs up to wait for the 1 month check-up for our next visit. Quite different from all those preemie weight checks we had with Ellie!
Ellie was 27.5 lbs (right above 50th percentile) and 34 3/4 inches (75th percentile)! She is growing so fast. She did a great job despite being pretty freaked out by the doctor invading her personal space! She was very excited to get a glitter Elmo sticker at the end.
We're happy they are both so healthy and hope not to have to go back to that germy place until Ruby is one month old!
