Maya's First Month

It is hard to beleive but Maya is already over one month old! And she is getting more beautiful every day! She is now smiling- she has a beautiful smile that makes Mummy and Papi forget all about the lack of sleep and copious dirty nappies that are part of life with a newborn.

We have now been discharged from our midwife, and had our first visit from the plunket nurse last week. At this visit Maya weighed 4kg- a good weight gain- and was 55cm long. In the last few days she seems to have hit a growth spurt- sleeping short bursts and feeding frequently, but otherwise has been eating and sleeping well (up to 6 hours per night!)

Maya continues to be the subject of many phots- follow these links for photos from Maya's first month.
