LakeLynn's 1 week old checkup

Lake had another pediatrician appt on Friday, Sept. 28th. This was her official 1 wk old checkup. Upon examination, Dr. McCain was pleased to inform me that she looked "awesome"! Coco helped me with this appt due to Logan having to work & Stryker tagging along for his flu shot. Stryker wanted to be close to baby Lake as she was examined: measurements, weight, heart sounds, breath sounds, hip joints, vision/pupil reactions, etc. Dr. McCain enjoyed explaining to her buddy what she was doing to his sister. We love Dr. McCain! LakeLynn's bilirubin level had increased slightly from Monday afternoon to 12.2 but we were told that was normal & it would continue to decrease from this point. Stryker was not happy about being tricked into a flu shot at the end of the appt. He did fine & only cried for a few minutes. Sorry buddy. We'll return in a few wks for her 1 month checkup. McCain said we could let her sleep longer as she ate within 4.5 hours. Yay, no more waking our sleeping beauty to eat every 3 hours!

Stats:
5 pounds 13 ounces
18 3/4 inches long
