In This Corner.... The Mighty Quinn!!!

Yesterday we made a visit to the doctors so Quinn could hit the scale.
We stripped her down... she peed... then we put her on the scale.
She is up almost 6lbs 14 oz which is only 1 oz from her birth weight. She has gained 3 oz. in 2 days! The two hour feeding are paying off.

Auntie Aisling and Uncle Jay came by to visit Quinn. She was a regular lady for them. They all played nice together. A good play day was achieved.

Last night wasn't such a great night. Quinn's schedule seemed to be way off. She was up a lot of the night. She wasn't eating much and crying quite a bit. We finally had a combination of gripe water, new nipple on the bottle, pure breast milk (from a formula mix) and a diaper change and that seemed to work. I think it was just pure luck. We seem to think it might be the fact that we give her the antibiotics in the night and it bothers her. We will try and give it to her during the day today and see what happens.

Daddy had a tough night with the little sleep and his tooth was hurting but mom really took over.

The focus again today is eating.... we are focused on getting Quinn to 7lbs by her doctor's appointment tomorrow!!
