OK, so Grace gained another 60 grams yesterday, bringing her to a chart-topping 1590g. While I am very excited to see my little girl a healthy 3.5 lbs and getting bigger, I am growing increasingly concerned. The doctors and nurses don’t seem to understand or care about my concerns. They just look at me like they did when I asked if there was any chance that those steroids Jenn was given a few weeks ago might give Grace superpowers…and then they carry on increasing her feedings, day after day. Can’t they see the trend? She just gained 20% of her body weight in just two weeks of life (oh, yeah, happy weekiversary, sweetheart)!
How long do we have until she destroys that nice crib we bought? If this keeps up, she will be 93 lbs by Christmas, 335 lbs by her first birthday party and half a ton by next summer! I’m going to need a bigger car!
