1. She is amazingly feminine compared to her brothers as babies. Her little mannerisms and looks are all very 'girly' and very compelling to watch.
2. She has lovely long dainty fingers.
3. Her toes are extraordinarily long too, and her 2nd toes on both feet bend slightly the wrong way.
4. She is impossible to 'burp' and is extremely windy all the time.
5. She 'spits up' as they say in America - I call it 'being sick' - several times after each feed. Tiny amounts but goes through alot of clothes and blankets as a result.
6. She sleeps remarkably well for a tiny baby. 3-4 hours at a time between feeds. We're actually getting alot of rest at night - really only dealing with 1 feed at around 4am and then sleeping till 8am.
7. She loves to sleep face down on her Daddy's chest. Sometimes one of her 4 hourly stints at night will be spent there... he doesn't mind either, he likes it :)
8. She's just starting, at 5 days old, to open her eyes more and focus and take in what's going on around her.
9. She had a massage with lotion last night after her bath and she was utterly blissed out by it. Looks like this will become a regular event.
10. She has girl parts which are very scary to deal with when changing nappies! I changed my first one today and managed to walk away unscathed but it was very different!
