This video is not exciting at all. It just shows Eliana playing (as much as a one month old plays) in her bouncy seat. I like it because it shows how active she is now. Probably a video only a mother would enjoy. Don't say I didn't warn you.
We went to the pediatrician today for Eliana's one month visit. In case we didn't know already, we have a big girl on our hands! Eliana weighs 11lbs 13oz and is 23in long! That's the 95th percentile for both. So she is a symmetrically big girl. The pediatrician also checked out the rash on her face. You probably wouldn't notice it unless you looked closely at her ears. David and I had diagnosed it as neonatal acne. Despite our medical background, we should leave the pediatric diagnoses to Dr. Greenfield. Turns out she has seborrhea, which is commonly called cradle cap in infants. Usually it shows up on the scalp of infants, but in Eliana's case, it is mostly around her ears and on her cheeks, not on the top of her head. Luckily it usually clears up on its own by six months to one year. So our trip to the ped confirmed that we just have a big, beautiful, healthy baby girl!
In one final note, Eliana is still a big puker. She has been awake for two hours and has already thrown up on herself three times, on me twice, and on her car seat once. Doesn't seem to bother her though. It obviously hasn't affected her growth!
