Isla's Checkup

I went to my midwife appointment today ... we're 12 days postpartum. 

• Isla weighed 8 pounds 13 ounces ... pretty good for a not quite 2 week old.
• I only weighed 4 pounds more than I did when I got pregnant (!!)
• Isla and I have thrush/a yeast infection of some sort ... the inside of her mouth is white and her diaper area is super red and it hurts to nurse her ... hopefully we'll get that gone soon.  I think it's too early to already be doing stuff like this but ... oh well.
• We did the second PKU for Isla and she screamed her little head off when they were squeezing her sad little heel.  It was not great, but necessary.
• Everything else seems normal and good.  I had to pull over into a parking lot on the way home to feed her because she was absolutely hysterical.  She hates the car seat I guess.  I always feel so helpless when the baby is screaming and I can't even see them because I'm driving.  It's hard to listen to it ... but I guess I know it's only a short time.

We're doing well I'd say.  I can't believe it's almost been 2 weeks!!
