Brynn two month checkup
Brynn had her 2 month checkup at the doctor today. She was a half pound ahead of Esme’s rapid growth at her 1 month checkup — let’s see where she stands now:
- Birth; Tuesday, February 22: 7lbs, 15oz. 20″
- Hospital discharge; Saturday, February 26: 7lbs, 10oz. (it’s normal for babies to lose some weight in their first few days)
- One week checkup; Friday, March 4: 8lbs, 8oz. and 21″ on what was scheduled to be her official due date
- One month checkup; Thursday, March 24: 11lbs, 8oz. and 21.5″
- Two month checkup; Tuesday, April 26: 14lbs, 2 oz; 23.5″
So that’s two inches and nearly three pounds in a month — holy cow! Literally, she is almost the size of a Holy Cow!
Now, comparing them to where Esme was after two months, you’ll notice that Esme was 13lbs, 1oz. and 23″, and she was in the 90th percentile for weight and 75th percentile for height. So, given Brynn’s monstrous stats, that puts her in between 75th and 90th percentile or so for height, but above the 95th percentile for weight.
Keep growing, little puffin!
