Juliet's 6-8 week check

Juliet and I have now completed the trifecta of 6 week medical appointments today (innoculations, obstetrician and her check-up).  All has been well in all cases.

She now weighs 5.01kg, and all her measurements - length, head and that weight are in the 75th percentile, which is back where she was when she was born.  So am feeling very proud of that catch-up.  They all know her at the clinic as the 10/10/10 baby so everyone remembered her and commented on what a good job I'd done.  Yeay me.  A comedy of errors ensued as my remaining hormonalness made me have a little snivel at the praise, which meant they got out the post-natal depression questionnaire, which meant that Juliet's feed was delayed, which meant she screamed the place down, but apart from that all was well. 

Juliet's healthy in all other ways and has really started to be interested in the world around her, playing with the teddies on her Baby Bjorn chair, loving mirrors and enjoying "Juliet goes up; Juliet goes down" which is a fun game that Daddy has invented, involving lifting her up and down while she's in her worm suit.

Lots of fun times ahead as she gets more and more engaged and engaging.
