Two months old Pearl weights 11 lbs and 5 oz. She is standing 23 inches tall and has a head circumference of 15 and 1/3 inches. At last week's well-baby visits and according to the Dutch standardized growth chart these results put Pearl in the 50th percentile for weight, height, and head circumference. They also examined her behavior and gave her two immunization shots. She screamed really loud and was very upset with the nurse. Because of her reaction to the shots and the fact she passed her general examination, the Dr. said she is healthy.
Overall Pearl is doing well and is extremely friendly. When we visited Pier and Satoko over the weekend. Pearl smiled and coo at Pier. And when she sat on my lap, she started to smile immediately. I didn't have to initiate any smiles. She appears to be happy and loves making bubbles. I was not able to capture any of it onto the camera as the flash on the camera distracts her.
As for us, we are happy too especially because Pearl is allowing us to get more sleep at night. We can sleep about 5 and half hours before having to wake up for a feeding.
