2 week check up

Lyla had her two week check up today with Dr. Moore. She is now 8lbs 1 oz and 20 inches long. Dr. Moore said she is doing wonderful...yay! He told us we can start letting her sleep at night until she wakes us up. We no longer have to wake her up every 3 hours. Cross your fingers that she sleeps a little bit. He also commented on how well she calms herself down after being startled. The down side to the visit was she had to have another PKU test. Her blood sample from the hospital did not work so they had to redo it today. It was awful watching the nurse try to get 5 big blood drops from her foot. She kept squeezing her little leg to try to get the blood to pool. It was terrible. Dan said next time if they have to do it again he will have to leave the room. We just felt so sorry for her. After a good crying fit she calmed down and acted like nothing happened. I think I would have cried for at least an hour if they did that to me! Overall it was a successful trip to the doctors.
