We look at the baby's first weeks of life every day to see if it has grown a little more than yesterday. We can measure it or use the comparison method, less accurate, but much more fun.
A great idea of recording how the baby grows is the one Jen (@herewegoajen) had, a mother who records the growth of her baby by comparing her size with everyday objects.
Jen suffered a coagulation disorder during pregnancy that led to the premature birth of Alexandra, her third daughter, at 37 weeks with just 2,466 grams and 48 centimeters.
My first daughter was born at the same weeks and with almost the same weight (2,500 grams and 49 centimeters) due to an alleged intrauterine growth retardation. And on top of that he lost some weight after birth. She was so tiny that she was impressing, size 0 clothes were giant. Today my daughters play babies with dolls that wear the same clothes and I can't believe they have ever been so tiny.
The occurrence of this mother to document it seems very good. Under the hashtag #WeeBabyVs post pictures of your baby with everyday objects and food such as a dollar bill, a banana, a shoe, an iPad, a book, laundry or an egg box.
