Weight for it...

And yes, I did spell it wrong on purpose! :)

Zoe had an appointment with the GI specialist today. It was just a follow up for adding the milk in. The poop continues to be clear, we got the go ahead to start soy (if we want, but what will that really be? Not much!) and we can add egg in. WOOHOO! If her poop remains clear at the next appointment, we have NO MORE APPOINTMENTS.

Zoe was a HAM today at the drs office. She had the nurse in hysterics with her laughing, giggles, looks, and talks...oh and she managed to pee on the scale and got great lift-off (the nurse says she only sees that on boys!). The dr and nurse were both thrilled with how Zoe looked--chunky cheeks, thighs, and a nice little belly!!

Okay, for the most important news....

At her last GI drs appointment(February 9th), she was 19lbs 10oz, 29 inches long. Today, she measures in at 22 lbs, 8.4oz and 30 inches long!!! This is excellent news!! The nurse looked back, and at Zoe's first GI appointment in August, she was barely tipping the scales at 13lbs...so she's gaining QUITE well, and caught very very well. We're SO pleased.

You must know, that although the weight gain is great, the most important part is the clean stool. We're just thrilled!!
