We took Ms. Emma to the health clinic today for her well-baby check-up. \u00a0She’s now 6.760 g and 61 cm long, up from 5.805 g and 58 cm three weeks ago.<\/p>\n

Just for kicks, I found a growth chart program from the WHO<\/a>, and here’s Emma:<\/p>\n

\"Weight<\/a>

Weight vs. Age. The colored lines are percentage lines marking (from the top line) the 97th, 85th, 50th, 15th, and 3rd percentile. Emma is currently heavier than 98.1% of children her age according to the WHO.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Length<\/a>

Length vs. Age. The colored lines represent the 97th, 85th, 50th, 15th, and 3rd percentiles. Emma is currently taller than 96.6% of children her age according to the WHO.<\/p><\/div>\n

Interestingly, the health system in Iceland uses growth charts that originate from Sweden<\/a>, and according to those charts Ms. Emma is following her percentile line nicely, and not crossing lines like above.<\/p>\n

Also, before I forget, the Moby Wrap is AWESOME. \u00a0It’s the best way to put Emma to sleep if she’s over-tired or just fussy, and hasn’t failed us yet.<\/p>\n

\"A<\/a>

A wrapped baby is a sleeping baby.<\/p><\/div>\n

I’m also happy to report that I’ve made it to she swimming pool a few times in the past couple of weeks (usually while taking Bjarki to his twice-weekly swim lesson) and have managed to swim 1 km in 27-28 minutes a couple of times. \u00a0It used to take me 30-32 minutes when I was (not so) preggers, but I suspect the improvement is mostly because I’m swimming more freestyle, and less breast-stroke than I used to. \u00a0And yes, our local swimming pool is awesome, and getting pretty crowded now that the sun is up high and shining brightly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
