Mazie Month 1

Mazie is 1 Month Old Today!

We can't believe it.

Here are some fun facts about Mazie on Month 1:

* Her sleeping patterns were normal and then irregular.

* She eats when she wants to eat. And boy she let's you know when she is hungry. She was eating breast milk for the 3 weeks and then we added formula also. She will take the breast and a bottle.

* She coughs when she cries. Jeremy says she sounds like a raccoon.

* She dislikes getting a bath, being naked and being cold.

* Her favorite toys are her unicorn play mat and her swing. She likes to watch the sheep mobile move in circles while she swings.
* She enjoys driving in the car and listening to music. Her favorites are:
Any reggae music
Fever Ray
M83

She is such a big girl.

27 Week Facts

Uterus is measuring in at 27 cm

Weight to date: 156

Heartbeat: Strong

Belly Measurement: 37.5"

Facts:
My nails are super long and dangerous. Ha Ha!

The doctor put me on an Iron Supplement due to lack of Iron. I'm supposed to be ranging 35 to 45 and I'm at 34, it's not to bad, but little Mazie is taking most of my Iron from me.
I'm starting to have lower back pain due to the belly getting larger.
I am having leg cramps in the middle of the night for the past two weeks. My legs feel like jello by morning.

I am also going to start birthing classes in the next few weeks, I am nervous and excited!

Love,
Kristin
