So Many Folds, So Little Time

Zoë is just over 9 weeks now. Her last weight check a week ago was also just over 9 pounds. We'll have an official weight measure at her 2 month pediatric visit this week. The breast milk has been doing a fantastic job in her weight gain. Bathing her is becoming more of a challenge because we have to clean all the body folds due to her ever increasing body habitus. Picking her up also takes more physical (sometimes emotional) effort. She now has an impressive layer of brown fat for the cold winter months as well as cheeks for storage of nuts and what nots.
