Growth Chart
Date Weight Length
11/18/2009 12 lbs. 14 oz. 25.25 in.

Her head circumference is 42cm. She's growing consistently. Her height growth is faster than her weight gain, but Dr. Kaden says that she's gaining weight, and that's what matters, for now.


10/15/2009 12 lbs. 7 oz. 24.5 in.

They must have measured her wrong last month, because her length is 1/4 inch less this month. She also got her second dose of her shots from August.


09/10/2009 11 lbs. 12 oz. 24.75 in.

She got two more shots.


08/05/2009 10 lbs. 12 oz. 23.25 in.

She got two shots today, and gets two more in a month.

She saw the new pediatrician, Dr. Kaden, for the first time today.


06/15/2009 7 lbs. 7 oz.

06/11/2009 6 lbs. 11 oz.

Miriam saw her doctor today. She's lost about 10% of her birth weight, which is normal.


06/08/2009 7 lbs. 6 oz. 20.25 in.

Today is Miriam's birth day!


04/17/2009 4 lbs. 2 oz.

The ultrasound puts the baby in the 40th percentile for size, which is great, since the doctor was concerned that I was having a big baby since my belly measurement is larger than my weeks (32 weeks v. 34 cm).


02/05/2009 1 lbs.

The baby looked great! Just the size it should be. The baby loves to put his/her hands up at his/her face.
