Our sweet, precious Lauren Grace Sielicki was born on Wed., July 25th at 1:56pm. She weighed 6lbs, 13oz. and was 19 3/4 in. long. This delivery was much easier. It was a scheduled c-section. My parents came up to stay with Alli while we were in the hospital. We headed home with Lauren on Sat. Alli has been so excited and is a wonderful big sister. She's very loving and protective of Lauren. So far, Lauren's been a pretty easy baby. She seems to be pretty laid back. We went to the pediatrician for her 2 week check up on Aug. 8th, and everything seemed good with her except she had lost a little more weight. When we left the hospital, she was down to 6lbs, 7.9oz. At her check-up, she was down to 6lbs, 4.9oz. The pediatrician was a little concerned, but we decided to bump up her in take. She was also up to 21in long. We went back to the doctor last Mon. for a weight check, and she was up to 6lbs, 9oz. The pediatrician was pleased with that. We also received the news that one of her newborn screenings came back abnormal. She was retested on Monday, and we are prayerfully awaiting the results. Besides that bit of stress we are all doing well, and know that God has Lauren and us in his hands.
