I took Matilda for her fortnightly weigh-in and measure today. I've been so determined to get food into her that it has almost become an obsession. Anyway, she measured in at 65cm - that's a gain of 2.5cm in 2 weeks which is fantastic. It also gets her to a great milestone - the 1st percentile :). Our paed said that when they're under the 1st percentile they really worry, but hopefully this is the start of some great growth. Her weight hadn't changed (6.2kg) but it often lags behind. We're thinking that the CMV has just battered her around so much that it has taken this long to start seeing any improvements.
On the speech side, Matilda is now saying "ah-ah-ah" for plane (very cute to hear her say it with the same intonation that I use), "ee" for monkey and "ee-ow" for cat. Still waiting for the babbling, but I'm trying to be patient ...
