More updates!
Laura had another doctor appointment today. She now weighs 7 pounds, 11 ounces! Her doctor says he's surprised that she's gaining weight so well, considering how little she weighed when she was born. :) At this rate, she'll be at an average weight for a baby her age within the month! I'm very happy about that.
We also checked my blood pressure... it's getting better, and I might be able to come off the medication by next month. We're going to keep an eye on it, and I have an appointment in two weeks to have it checked again.
Now that Laura is past a month old, I've started having Tummy Time with her on a play mat that I set in the middle of the floor. Obviously, she's too young to start lifting her body with her arms or to start crawling, but I've noticed she is already using her legs to push herself from one end of the mat to the other!
Her smiles and giggles are too damn precious, as well. Sooner or later, I'll attempt to get a video of them! She's particularly fond of having her feet tickled with feathers. She still smiles and giggles more in her sleep than when she's awake, but I'm sure that as she gets older, she'll share her giggles with us while she's awake. :)
