She now weighs 19.8lbs..we weighed her at 20lbs the other day....so give or take right lol..she is 68.5cm in height and her head is 45cm around. What I find funny is they are all under a percentile..for Evie this means she is in the 56% for weight, 23% for height and wait for it...74% for her head circumference...which she totally gets from her dad!!!
All is well for Evie..she did really good at the doctors..just played with her toys we brought..laughed and chatted away with the nurse and doctor..even waved ppl in the lobby on the way up. Our doctor was kinda surprised we started the homo already..not that she can do anything about it now..there was no way I was switching her to formula..since there was no need..Evie is doing extremely well on the homo and now she is 9 months anyway. We have her on Dairy-Oh which she is happy about..but still wants us to try and give her fish that is rich in Omega 3...I can not imagine trying to puree or mash fish and feed it to Evie...I can not eat fish myself..and can not even stomach the smell. So there is no way that is happening unless Doug is having some and she can try it then...totally grosses me out.
That all being said...the doctor was happy on how well she is doing...despite me not listening about the early giving of the homo! We still only have 2 teeth...we keep thinking another one is soon to appear but every time we check to see or feel there is nothing new to be seen. We are now trying to be very mobile..sitting up very well on our own...attempting to feed ourselves the bottle..little help here and there..unless we are super tired..in that case we like to have the extra attention. We are starting to push off of things around us or do a bridge in the air to get on all fours and wiggle our bum in the air to get momentum to try and move forward...this is all very new. We have already been scootching, sliding and turning on our tummy and back for a couple of weeks already..mostly turning and going backwards not forward. We are in definite need of baby proofing soon for our little independent girl is going to be on the move.
On another note..we also had an appointment for Momma. Since I switched her to homo..I was waiting to see if other things were going to happen naturally for me. I had not had anything happen since I had my sweet baby. So almost 2 years really. I finally got my dear friend Aunt Ruby...last Tuesday..which is good news in a sense..not so much for the disastrous pain I was in. The doctor was glad to hear that. All being said..we have now faxed my info onto Maskens..the specialist we had seen before....to start seeing him again..It took 3 years for our sweet girl to come into our lives and we have decided awhile ago that we were not going to wait very long in between children..due to we are not sure how long it will be. For all we know it could be another 3 years..hopefully not..but who knows. We need to find out what is happening, hormone levels, if I still have cysts from my PCOS..or if it has gone away for the time being.. When I had see the specialist for my 6 week app after the baby was born..he was pretty sure we could not get pregnant while breastfeeding and told us he was pretty sure that every time we wanted to try and conceive we would need assistance in some form or another.
Right now we wait to hear back to get an initial app with him again. Thank goodness our names have been in his files in the past year..so hopefully we do not have to long of wait seeing as we were a more recent of a patient. He is on holidays until the end of September...so who knows..by the time Evie is 1 years old..we could expecting baby number 2...or on our way to figuring out how to get on our way there. We are to call if we do not hear from them in two weeks...here goes nothing. I know if we do get pregnant again..Doug wishes it is a boy this time lol. We would be happy being blessed with either. We love our family so much and are so blessed to be given a gift from God already. Evie needs someone else to play with eventually right..the dogs tail keeps getting shorter..
I believe that is all for now..I will leave you with a few photos. Much Love from us all here xo.
