7 week check up

Josefine had her 7 week check up (which is normally done at 8 weeks but we will be in Brazil by then). The Dr. said she is doing really well and was (pleasantly) surprised in seeing what a smilley baby we have!
She now weighs 4.6kg/10.2lbs (which is in the 50% for her age), she is also in the 50% for her head circumference and she is 57cm/1'10" which is the in the 75% for her age.
The Dr. prescibed some antifungal and eczema cream for a bad rash she had on her neck. It had been very itchy and with the creams it is much better already!
She also received her first set of shots. One in each leg. With the first injection she barely moved and the Dr. praised her in how brave she was. But when the second injection went into her leg - SHE SCREAMED!
Her sleeping is overall very good, although we do have some 'off' days. Twice she has now been able to sleep 6 hrs without a feed, which is a very close step away from sleeping through the night!
