First visit to the pediatrician

We went to the pediatrician on Tuesday. We had been told by the nurse in the hospital to go on Tuesday and that we didn't need an appointment because they had to see us by law. So we go there - very tired - and the receptionist was giving us a hard time. Anyway, I will just say that we got an appointment for the doctor at 3:00pm.

We actually got in to see the doctor at about 4:00. Silvina had just finished feeding Akemi in the waiting room. The doctor seemed to be a good person. He weighed Akemi - 7 lbs 7 oz - and listened to her heartbeat. He was impressed that she didn't cry once, even when he put the cold stethoscope to her chest.

That day I think we turned a corner with Akemi. We were feeling more confident as parents.
