Two weeks

Yesterday, Kate reached the two week mark, although still ten days shy of her estimated due date. This morning we had our two week check up. We were all sure she was over her birth weight of 7 lb 0 oz, but weren't sure by how much. She weighed in at 8 lbs 0 oz! Yep, she's a very good nurser. All her other checks were good too - temperature, heart and lung sounds. I got checked too - blood pressure, temperature and my tear were all checked. I'm totally healed, but my temperature was a bit up. I've been feeling lightheaded and a bit nausous the past few days, so we think I'm fighting off a bug of some sort. I'm being sure to sleep more today and really rest, since the lack of sleep certainly isn't helping. We have our last appointment with the midwives in 4 weeks, although Roswitha said I can come back whenever I want (to have another. ha!)
