Because of my GBS status and the fact that Hannah and I only got 45 minutes worth of antibiotics rather than the recommended 4 hours during labor and delivery, she had to have a CBC done soon after birth as well as a quick follow up appointment with the pediatrician the day after we got home from the hospital. Her bloodwork was fine and she checked out perfectly at the doctor.
Here are her stats:
Length 16.9 inches 50th percentile
Weight 7 pounds 30th percentile
Head 34.6cm 50th percentile
We returned for a appointment at 5 days of age for a routine check. She had gained back 2 ounces, was mildly jaundiced, and doing well overall!
