Brooklyn has been such a good baby. She sleeps a lot and is happy. I have been taken her to the doctor to be weighed every week since she was born because she hasn't been gaining very much. When I took her today she had not gained anything in a week. I wanted to cry. The nurse that weighed her was like ok you can go and the doctor will call you later. I was thinking I can't go. What am i to do. My baby is not gaining any weight you don't just send me on my way when something like that happens. She was telling the main nurse and I was getting Brooklyn dress holding back the tears till I could get in my car. The main nurse was like let me weigh her again to make sure. When she got to the scale it wasn't balance so she told the first nurse that she needed to make sure that the scale was balanced before she started. Once they balance the scale and weighed her again she was 8 lbs 5 oz. She had gain 7 oz in a week. That is how much they like them to gain in a week. So no more weight checks till her 2 month appointment. Yeah!!!!

These pics are so true to her character, all she does is nap.
Yeah for the other nurse! I am glad that she has gained some weight. There is nothing more stressful than all of that. She is adorable in all those sleepy pictures. Makes me tired.
I am sorry that you were so sad!! I am glad that Brooklyn is growing!!
Oh Amie - I'm so sorry that you've had to go through that at all! I took Zeke in at 5 weeks and he had gained 2 oz. I felt soooo awful. It's the worst feeling ever. I'm so glad she's doing fine now!
