Ivanna is 6 months old today (two months since my due date, hense developmentally two months).
It's been eight weeks since we were discharged from NICU. Today she weighs 3.5 kg and at the day of discharged (July 27) she weighed 2.4 kg.
Last week my mom arrived and I finally have a little more time on my hands. Juggling work (a little bit every day from home), taking care of a baby and trying to sleep was not easy!
Ivanna is doing amazing! she is such a joy! She smiles to much, she talks and she is extremely uber cure.
We have different nights, some where she can sleep 4 hours, eat, and then go back to sleep for 2-3 more hours. And some nights are gassy and sleepless...
We go for walks every day. Ivanna loved to be carried in a wrap... So far we have been at a neighbours birthday party, at a mall (during non-crowded time), at many stores (baby stores, etc) and we have been to a bunch of appointments (two eye exams, two surgery consultations, two NICU follow up appointments and one pediatrician appointment). Quite a bit in two months, but she handles these things well!All the appointments confirm that she is fully fine and developmentally is a right place! She is growing well two, gaining more than a kilo in a month.
Next Monday September the 24th Ivanna will have a laproscopic hernia surgery. I am nervous but doctors keep saying that it is such a common and minor procedures and that I shouldn't worry. This surgery is such a minor thing comparing to the risks that Ivanna faced and overcame in NICU yet it is the most invasive procedure for her. She should be discharged the same day or possible the next morning.
