I know I haven´t been writing very often... I´m still adjusting to the new routine... Here´s what´s been going on:

Julia went back to the doctor when she was 5 days old. She (the doctor) wanted to see her because when we left the hospital she was showing signs that she could develop something I don´t know the name in english - it´s when their skin is a little yellow. This is apparently very common in babies. Everything was normal. She was weighting 2.935 gs (she was born with 3.275 gs), which the doctor said is normal. They lose weight in the first days of life. We then scheduled another appointment for 5 days later. Here´s a picture of her at 5 days:



So 5 days later (when she was 10 days old), we wnt back to the doctor´s. Everything was normal, except that she lost more weight. She was supposed to have gone back to her birth weight. Instead, she was at 2.850 gs. That means we´re now complementing the breastfeeding with a bottle of formula. Here´s a picture of her at 10 days:


We go back to the doctor on the 21st. She looks like she is gaining weight though...

Her umbilical cord fell off when she was 11 days old. We planted it under a rose bush (sort of a tradition here).

Other than that she is great!! Barely even cries... Here´s a picture taken today:
