Doctor Visit
Emmy had her first doctor appointment today. She's doing well, and here are her stats:
- Weight 6 lbs, 12.5 oz (14th percentile)
- Length 20.5 inches (she has already grown an inch and a half - either that or they did not measure her correctly at birth) (60th percentile)
- Head 13.75 inches (34th percentile)
The only negative was Dr. Bryan thought she looked a little jaundice, so had to have blood drawn. The blood work came back a little high, but not at a dangerous level. So we are supposed to put her in the sun in her diaper and bring her back for another bilirubin test in a week. I hate to see her pricked and it takes so long to fill a vial of blood, but I'm glad we're being cautious.
