Updated: Bailey is now in like the 80th percentile for weight and 40th for height, I think… The doctor said she was doing well and probably had a big weight gain during this second month since she wasn’t gaining a whole lot during the first month.

She is meeting all of her little milestone/expectation thingies such as picking her head up enough when on her stomach, cooing, eye contact, etc. Except- the doctor asked if she was smiling a lot and we said still only once in a while- like maybe two or three times a day but she has to be in a good mood or someone has to be particularly interesting. She said she would “like to see her smiling more within the next 2.5 weeks” so whatever. I guess our kid is a slow smiler. Oh well.

She was fine for the first three shots and then screamed like crazy during the last one. I was surprised she held out that long even. She sucked on my finger for a few minutes and calmed down fairly quickly. Was crabby a little bit later in the day and had two doses of Tylenol. Then she slept last night from 11 pm until when I woke her up this morning at 8:40 because we had to go somewhere. She slept more than usual today, too, but her personality seems to be back to normal.
