Jazz has been doing great, growing big and gorgeous!!
She smiles lots at you and eats like a little piggy (ahhhh, if only that had lasted!!!!) Still very colicky though.
We went to ronald mac for the premmie parents morning tea. Bec and her mum loved Jazz! Ava is huge!! and so gorgeous! Bec and I met Fu and longlong at the cafe, Longlong's huge too, jazz loomked so tiny in comparison!
Jazz had her physio appointment on the 12th August. Rochelle is mighty impressed of course! Shes doing so well. Normally the micro prems have quite a few problems with holding their head, and arm muscles shortening from the way they lie in the isolette, but not Jazz!! She goes back in about 6 weeks and theyve referred her to an outside service just in case anything crops up in the next 9 months. The waiting list is about 9 months and if theyre not in the system and something crops up, by the time they wait theyve already missed an important opportunity to get in early enough to make a huge difference.
She saw her paediatrician on the 14th, hes impressed too!! He said shes a normal 6 weeks old, just small.
Smalls not the word, she hasnt hit any of the growth charts yet for weight and length!! Although shes almost at the 3rd centile for HC on the premmie chart. She now weighs 6lb 3oz, thats half an ounce heavier than Kai's birth weight at 38 weeks! She fits into some 5 0's still and a lot of the 4 0's are still massive on her!!
On the 13th she had her first big bath with Paige, then Kai and loved it!
She's eating 100ml 4-5hrly and sometimes having a booby snack in between! I'm still expressing and have a massive chest freezer, an upright freezer and 3 fridge freezers full of breast milk still!! So much for all my ealry concern about my lack of milk!!! But we are going through it quite quickly now!!
