Thank you everyone for the helpful information. These are all things I was thinking about, but finding it hard to "articulate." I'm also going to talk to her about the vitamin D issue, water, iron and starting solids. Appropriate supplementation could be another topic. I'm also going to ask what she thinks she needs to talk about! Will report back in a few days.
