A weighty tale (for Charlotte)

When Ethan was around 4 weeks old I did an update of how his weight progressed through the weeks (read here). So I thought that I should do a similar post for Charlotte:

• Birth weight - 3.375 kg
• Day 4: Discharge from hospital - 3.180 kg (-195 gm)
• Day 7: Child Health Nurse visit - 3.330 kg (+ 150 gm)
• Day 14: Child Health clinic - 3.608 kg (+ 278 gm)
• Day 21: Child Health clinic- 4.042 kg (+ 434 gm)
• Day 30:  Child Health clinic- 4.518 kg (+ 476 gm)

I am pleased to see her weight gain as she feeds less than Ethan did and also for shorter periods (so she must be a more efficient feeder). Sometimes she can feed for as little as 4 mins and be done. Others she feeds for 20 mins!

See how Charlotte has grown:
