Well, it’s finally happened — I reached my pre-pregnancy weight! <\/p>\n

Weighing in<\/p>\n

I haven’t really been stressing about this, as I’ve been hovering around 1-4 pounds over my goal weight for a few months. But the other day the scale told me that not only have I reached my pre-Lucy weight, but I’m 1.5 pounds under it! Since I haven’t been counting “Weight Watchers”:\/news\/2006\/weigh-day\/ points since the spring, I’m not super-sure how this has happened — maybe all the extra exercise from “chasing around”:\/news\/2007\/early-steps\/ our inspired little biped? In any case, I’m not complaining!<\/p>\n

In other weight news: at Lucy’s 15-month well-baby appointment, we learned that she has grown 1.25 inches in the past three months — but lost an ounce! That puts Lucy in the 71st percentile in height, but the 7th in weight! (Not typos.) Hmmm — how did “this little girl”:\/news\/2006\/thats-phunnie\/ become such a string bean? Dr Minkus didn’t seem too worried about it, so we’ve just been trying to encourage Lucy to eat more foods with butter on them. :) (Don’t worry, it’s healthy, non-hydrogenated Earth Balance butter spread with Omega-3’s.)<\/p>\n

We also think that Lucy’s weight maintenance might be due to her distaste for cow’s milk. We even tried giving her some milk spiked with Ovaltine, which she thinks is okay, but she’d prefer water over milk any day. I’m still nursing her 3-4 times a day, but since we are planning to wean in a couple of months, we’d love to get this girl drinking some milk from a cup! Oh well, at least she enjoys cheese now, and (of course) ice cream. Maybe she’ll turn a corner on our Cedar Campus visit next week — stranger things have happened!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
