Miss Harli had her first doctor's appointment today. We are seeing Dr Fackrell since that's Kory's doctor and he sees babies. We thought we were only going to be able to see him for our newborn appointment but he sees patients birth and up. This was great to hear because Kory really likes him. The appointment today was mainly to check her weight and make sure that she was gaining weight instead of losing more. She left the hospital weighing 5lbs 7oz and this afternoon she weighed 5lbs 11.5oz! The doctor said that everything else looked good. I brought along my list of many questions. Luckily the dr answered most of them before I could ask them and he didn't mind he asking the other ones. I figure I'm a new mom and Kory hasn't done this in 15 years so we are bound to have MANY questions. The doctor kept commenting on how great she was doing. He was surprised that she was able to hold her head up so well and move around as much as she did for as small as she is. He said that she will just be a small baby. We go back next week for her two week check up and to once again check her weight. Harli was the talk of the office today! Kory thinks its because her name is so different but I think its because she's so cute!! Dr Fackrell said we make cute babies! I attached a couple of photos of Harli before her first doctor's appointment. She did so well and only cried when we had to strip her down to her diaper. Hopefully next week's appointment goes just as well.
