Supermodel : Two Months
Today we had our two month appointment with our pediatrician, Dr. Jamila, at TriBeCa Pediatrics. Although TriBeCa isn't the closest pediatrician to us, we really like their community focus and laid back approach. They also have a good reputation and, on a nice day, not a bad walk away from us. And they have Saturday appointments.
Anyway, along with our laundry list of questions for the doctor, we were really looking forward to Beia's weight check. This is the most eagerly anticipated part of the visit for us, since being "near preterm" Beia has always been on the small side. Prior to each visit we speculate how much she'll weigh and then high five each other if she reaches the imaginary target goal we've set for her. At our last visit two weeks ago, we took an unofficial weigh—in of 8.5lbs and were beyond thrilled. We had hoped for 8lbs, so this was better than we imagined. For this visit we were shooting for 9lbs. Beia really impressed us though with her 9lb 4ozs—HIGH FIVE! Although she's still only in the 6th percentile, her length puts her in the 67th percentile. Therefore, she already has a promising career as either a basketball player or supermodel...
