2 month doctor's appointment

So I have been anxiously anticipating this 2 month pediatric appointment knowing Bella was going to receive a series of shots.  It's funny, while I was in health care it didn't bother me one bit to use a needle, scalpel, whatever.....but now I am a huge whimp when it comes to my baby!!

We started out with measurements; she weighs 12 pounds 2 ounces (in the 90th percentile....NO suprise there!!!), head circumfrence 15.5 cm (75th percentile), and 22 inches (50th percentile).  The doctor's exact words were "you can't overfeed a breastfed baby".....in the Turkish culture, the fatter the better.....so I have a healthy baby on my hands!!!  Then I got to ask all my questions....like when do I get to eat dairy again?!!!  Unfortunately it will be most likely at 1 year of age but when she is 6 months we will try yogurt and see how she does....again, the lack of dairy in my diet is obviously not depriving her of calories!!!  I also wanted to know how long I could let Bella sleep at night without feeding her....and was told, as long as she wants.  So, David has been giving her a bedtime bottle at 8pm and I wake her at 3:30AM....tonight we shall see how long she goes....ah, SLEEP!!!!  And then I wanted to know how young I could get her ears pierced.  I was told they could do it today but I wasn't emotionally prepared (see opening paragraph!).  So, I have 2 months to build up the courage and we will get it done at her 4 month visit....yes, I know some of you have opposing opinions to piercing her ears this young.....I respect that, but please keep those opinions to yourself ;)   Besides, maybe it will make her face look slimmer!  HA!  And finally it was time for shots...she got 3 jabs and an oral dose.  OH MY GOODNESS...bless her heart....she did the cry where you wonder if they are ever going to inhale again.  Thank goodness it was short lived.  Needless to say we are back home and she is absolutely passed out in her swing.  I am so grateful God has blessed us with such a beautifully healthy baby girl!
