6 Week Check Up

Had Emily's 6 week check up at the doctor's.  All good!
11 pounds and 8 oz, 58.5 cm! Not bad huh. I know, I keep mixing the metrics. 
She also had her second shot (first one - Hep B) was at the hospital. She cried for exactly 3 seconds so I think I was more anxious about it than her. She is growing fast though, our baby girl!


We have also been to the Swedish pre-school again, it went a lot better this time. She hardly cried at all, she slept through most the songs and games. New strategy of mine: give her a top up just before we leave and change the diaper and I will have a happy and sleepy baby whenever we are out!  I did notice at the pre-school that I really have to stick with speaking Swedish with her at all times. Some of the parents speak English to their babies and they are struggling with the their Swedish. Priority number one from now on is to speak Swedish with Emily at all times. Now, she may either be super confused or turn out to be a language genious one day, our cleaners who don't speak so much English speak Spanish to her. Time will tell.

In the meanwhile, we are doing our power walks on a daily basis. Longer, faster but the damn scales hasn't moved in 2 weeks. Can't walk faster, can't walk further. Sigh!

Så söt hon är!
Fortsätt med promenaderna, gärna 2ggr om dagen och stirra inte så mycket på vågen. Mät med måttband istället. Vikten kommer att gå ner. Tålamod!
