Update to milk allergy question and AW!

KTZ17

DD had her doctor's appointment today and the pediatrician does not think she has a milk allergy. It was just one of those times when something was weird but we don't really know why. One of the reasons she does not suspect milk allergy is because she is gaining weight like a champ! She's up to 8lbs 6.5oz (she was 3lbs 11oz at birth May 17). Now that we have that worry out of the way, we can focus on other things...like actually sleeping at night so mama can sleep! Any advice, ladies? She sleeps all day!! ETA: like three people asked "how many days old is she?" at the doctor's office today. When does it get less annoying that people think she's younger than she is?

Yup, sleep isn't exactly something I believe you really have much control over -- you often hear once they get to 11/12 lbs they might start sleeping longer stretches -- we still have at least one wake-up overnight nearly every night, and our girls are nearing 15lbs. They're just hungry monkeys!

Haha, thought about this thread at DD's audiologist appointment. There was another baby in the waiting area. His mom asked when DD was born, as her son looked the same age. Her son was born in April! She seemed kinda shocked when I said DD was 13 months old. :P

Yeah, this lady said oh, our babies look like they're the same age and then she said hers was 8 days old. Uh, no. Try 10 weeks.
