She tends to have an accident in the middle of diapering on the changing table. But the goretex liner is doing its job in saving the cast hopefully. Since I can't flip her over yet, have been taking the weight of the cast on my upper body and using the mirror to do the diapering. Her swelling's down quite a bit, but we're still using the newborn size for the inner diaper.
Brought the jogging stroller out into the living room, and her granddad has been giving her rides in it within the house to entertain her. It is the right size to help keep her supine. We also brought her folding papasan-shaped chair and bean bag out to the living room. Together they help keep her at the right angle (less than 45 degrees) with her smallest pillow to support her back. It's helpful when feeding.
She's taking in slightly more food at a time. 4oz jar of baby food or a 4oz tub of yogurt - but not both in one meal. Strawberries about 3 + 3/4th of a cheese stick for breakfast - some examples.
She's still a bit clingy. She has this weird habit of needing to play with my hair to fall asleep. So often have to lie down next to her. Can't wait for the doc to ok sitting upright for short periods of time so we can use her borrowed spica table for playtime and meals.
Her intake of Motrin has reduced as well and we seem to be waiting longer between doses during the day. These young children have magical regenerative powers!
