My baby makes milk!


Ella had her one-monthish appointment today with our new doctors. We had to switch due to insurance - long story. After over an hour wait we finally met our new doctor. One of the first things I asked about was her baby acne. It's getting worse by the day. The doctor asked me if I knew what that was caused by - I totally did because all I do is breastfeed and read baby books (she's getting rid of my hormones). He then squeezed my little birdie's tiny nipple and milk came out!!! Apparently she is producing milk due to hormones too. Now, did anybody know about this and neglect to tell me? Weird.

Her stats:

Weight - 9 pounds, 4 ounces (50th %)
Height - 21.25 inches (50th %)
Head - 25th % (let's hope this doesn't mean a small brain, I kid, I kid)

My eyes were glued to your question because Nyla has achne too. But as you know I'm not breatfeeding. Maybe they're heat bumps. I guess I'll ask *Bing*.

I had never heard that either...strange. I also thought you meant he squeezed YOUR nipple. THAT would have been super weird. Wish I could see her again but you're family is here. Maybe I'll see her by the time she's 10 months.
