4 Month Check Up
Hi Everyone,
It's the Mom again! We had the four month checkup today and all went well. Okay it mostly went well, until the Doctor gave Mary her two immunization shots and well.... none of us liked that very much. Mary has been a bit irritable tonight, who can blame her....
Mary will be going for an ultrasound in February. This is so we can see whether or not she has Polycystic Kidney Disease. Ryan and some members of his family have this and we knew that Mary had a 50/50 chance of getting it as well. We will wait and see what happens. Hopefully Mary doesn't have the disease or if she does we hope that it remains the same as Ryan's has, with little complications!
On the bright side of it all, we have nothing to worry about with her wheezing which started yesterday and is intermittent (this is caused by either mucus or milk caught in her throat), there is nothing to worry about with her tremors either. As for her two little teeth, we can wipe (or brush hahahaha...) them if she lets us....
Best of all Mary is growing! At our first appointment with her Doctor (she was 3 days old), Mary wieghed 6lbs 12 oz, and she measured 19 1/4 inches! Today, at 2 days less than 4 Months she weighed 15 lbs 2 oz and measures 24 1/2 inches! YAY!
So our little one is growing and growing and is healthy! We are all very happy about this!
I just wanted to give an update on our Mary!
Lots of Love,
KRM
