Lily's First Check-up

Yesterday we took Lily to her one week check-up with our favorite Pediatrician, Dr. Mary Doyle.  Lily stats were:

7lbs, 6oz (50 percentile)
20.5 in (75 percentile)

Lily's discharge weight was 6lbs, 14oz, and I was confused about the ounces worked, so Dave drew a little scale for me on exam table paper (math is not one of my strengths!)  The doctor said she was really pleased with Lily's weight.  She said she normally looks to see babies trending toward their birth weight, but Lily has easily passed that, and she's up from her discharge weight by 8oz.  She also said she's showing no signs at all of jaundice, and that everything looked great!
