Here's a quick video of Tessa being forced to wake up. It was time for Tessa to eat, so I took off her swaddle and this is how she reacted (you can hear Tessa making some noises, as well as Lou crying a bit).
So far she has been such a good baby! Night #1 and #2 were really easy. She ate every 2-3 hours or so, but never cried once. I can hear her wake up and make little grunting noises. A quick diaper change, feeding, and she's back asleep. Repeat this 2-3 times and its morning.
Tessa had a routine doctor appointment today to check her weight and what not. She is back up to 6 lbs 12 oz (after dropping to 6 lbs 6 oz). Tim and I had been trying to plan out when to feed her so that going in the carseat and being at the doctors would hopefully go well. We had figured everything out, and low and behold we followed it to a tee. Tessa ate right before leaving for the doctors, and therefore slept the whole way there (10 minutes or so). Everything was going really well, until they told me to take off all her clothes...short story is she managed to pee and poop profusely thus needing a diaper change, new clothes, and a new covering on the examining table. I'm sure it was quite the sight to see Tim and I try and clean her up while just making a bigger mess everywhere. But we made it through the appointment and found the whole experience quite funny!
