I can't help it. We took lots of pictures and so did Mom. The pictures really pretty much speak for themselves. This is one very loved baby. There was a "V" cut on her head when she was born that we're not quite sure where it came from. One theory is that it was from the hook they used to break my water. Either way, for as deep as it felt on our newborn, it's pretty much all healed now, with nary a trace.
We went to the lactation consultant yesterday and confirmed my suspicions of another tongue tie. Nursing was feeling very reminiscent of Nathan and I am determined not to have things get to the point they did with him before getting help. We head to a pediatric dentist tomorrow who can hopefully laser her tie. Please keep your fingers crossed that she can get it all!
We also went to the pediatrician today who said that Viv is "looking awesome." No traces of jaundice and she's already regaining weight like a champ. She was back to 7 lbs 3 oz (she dropped to 6 lbs 15 oz in the hospital) and had on a wet diaper that weighed 3 oz. Rock on, girlfriend.
