Happy Due Date!

Today is Sylvie's original due date. She's now a whopping 7lbs 2.5 oz! I guess Sylvie knew today was the day she was supposed to be born because the girl has kicked it into high gear and started nutritively nursing! Today was the first time ever I actually heard, without a doubt, distinctive swallows. Her latch is more precise and her suck is stronger. I offered her the bottle afterwards and she only took half. She has never not finished a bottle before so I'm feeling confident that she got a good amount of milk straight from the tap. I think this is the turning point I've been waiting for! I'm so proud of my baby girl. And myself.
