Shanna's Latest Stats

With the widespread of H1N1, we did consider giving Shanna's 6 month check up at goverment clinic a miss, since it will just be a normal checkout without vaccinations. But the nurse convinced us that there won't be any sick babies/people on the day of check up. Apparently all the sick babies go to Bayan Baru branch and those at Sg Ara just come for routine vaccinations.


So, Shanna went for her routine check up yesterday. She weighed at 6.9kg, and her length was 67cm. She is getting nearer the 50th percentile (the average) of the growth chart. When she was born, she was nearer to the lower percentile. She is not a very plump baby; her milk intake is 6oz per feed, 30oz/day. But we are thankful that she is healthy, active and happy.


I have lost weight, currently ~5kg less than pre-pregnancy even with 4 meals a day. If I'm not fat and Shanna's not fat, where did all the fat go?
