I sure do.
I’ve never been one to worry about my milk supply, and it’s true that I’ve been known to refer to my breasts as my Super Soakers since they spray all over the place and often cause my little one to choke, cough, and gasp for air. (Is it any wonder Mary Elizabeth suffers from reflux?)
I was also well aware of the fact that our little M.E. had gotten a whole lot bigger by the looks of her delicious rolls, double chin, and dimpled thighs.
Still, I wasn’t quite prepared for just how much our little peanut had grown. I had Mary Elizabeth’s two-month checkup yesterday (she’ll be eight weeks on Sunday) and when they weighed her, my milk-producing duo swelled (quite literally) with pride.
Our M.E., who weighed in at 5 pounds 13 ounces at birth, now weighs a whopping 10 pounds 9 ounces. That’s not a typo. She’s not even two months yet and she’s almost doubled her weight.
Talk about a nice return for your investment.
Good feeding, mama! My friends have told me before that I produce whipping cream, not milk…compliment? I took it as one!
That baby is a serious sweetie. Rubber band wrists – oy.
She is so darling. It takes my breath away!
Beautiful!! Isn’t it wonderful when that all comes just from you??
You’re making some heavy cream!! Yay, she is adorable, and obviously thriving – what a delight!
Look at those rolls! I love them! I say the more rolls, the better! My mom used to count my rolls when I was a wee one when she was bored. M.E. is so cute!
What a cutie!!! She is beautiful. Congrats. :)
My friend’s milk was like yours.
I’ve nursed all my kiddos so far, and I’ve never seemed to have such roll-causing milk. I wish!
Keep up the good work, momma. :)
Oh Kate she is beautiful!! I love the rolls! Well done on the feeding. That baby's getting milkshakes!!
She is way too adorable! Love that beautiful baby chub! Mama makes the GOOD stuff, eh?
She's precious…
And I see the telltale bandaid on the thigh…ouch! I hate that part. I always cry.
Grow, baby, grow! LOVE the rolls!
Good job mama! She's growing as fast as James did – maybe faster!
