Abrie had her 6-month well baby appointment on Friday.
At 6 months of age, Madison weighed 18 lbs, 14 1/2 oz and was 26 1/2 inches long. Faith weighed 14 lbs, 12 oz and was 25 inches long.
.... Abrie weighs 13 lbs, 8 oz and is 25 1/2 inches long.
Our TINY little girl!
She did not even gain a pound in the 2 months since she was last seen at the doctor. I was a little worried, and still am but Dr. Sergi has been their doctor since we moved to Reading and since Faith was a newborn. She told me to not worry at all, that this is just the way she and big sis Faith grow. They are both petite little girls.
Abrie has never been a good eater. Never. Breastfeeding is a challenge with her, even though she is #3. There are times when she eats so well, and it is a calming and soothing force for her. But, there are other times where she latches on and off and just spews everything and fusses non-stop.
I think my major thing is to not let myself get sucked up into the worry that I am doing something wrong. There seems to be such a stigma that hovers over the "less than average" sized baby, and Faith and especially Abrie have gotten their share of comments about being smaller.
I love my darling little Breeze. She is our little snack!
