Almost there

We made it up to the hospital for Hope's 8 pm care time. This is when they weigh and measure her. The scale is actually right there in the bed. They lay down one of her diapers (to even out against her diaper that she's wearing), pick her up and hold her for a minute, remove the diaper, and set her back down. Then presto, the bed tells you how much she weighs. So we waited to see the results for tonight and.......she weighed 1 lb 13 oz. What? She lost almost a pound? So the nurse reweighed her and she was 800 grams. Then 880. Then 900. Then 910. And finally, 1200. At this point the nurse went and got a regular scale and it turns out that our girl is 2 lbs 14 oz. Yay! She's almost to the 3 lb mark! The nurse is going to weigh her later tonight because that is a 3 oz gain. However, my suspicion is that last night the bed didn't give an accurate weight either. I guess we'll see when I call in the morning. Oh, and for the record... her temp was not 96.4. Mike snapped the shot while we were still taking it. She was actually 97.1, which is a little low. They like them to stay above 97.6. They had turned down the heat in her bed, but the nurse was going to turn it back up. We didn't stay long because Hope was really sleepy and the nurse had a lot to do. We'll go visit some more tomorrow. Oh, I almost forgot. She is 15.5 inches long now. Go Hope!
