Our awesome Doctor Swords!
Dane had his 4 month wellness visit and shots this last Tuesday. He was 17.15oz which is the 90th percentile. His head was 17.5
" which is also the 90th percentile. His height was 28" and off the charts! He is going to be tall with broad shoulders. There are several outfits he cant wear because I can't get them around his shoulders. Overall the visit was great. He is back on regular Enfamil since the soy wasn't helping very much and was causing him severe constipation. I talked to the doctor to see if we should try another medicine to help with his spitting up but at this point we are going to have to just deal with it. He is not losing weight and it is no longer hurting him so I guess we will just keep changing our clothes 4 times a day and doing endless loads of laundry. The only concern Dr. Swords had was that the knot on his head was getting bigger so now AGAIN we have to go to Childrens Mercy and get another ultrasound to see if it is anything to worry about. Does anyone have any idea what a pain in the behind it is to go to Childrens Mercy, not to mention it costs money.
Now that Dane is 4 months old we are having so much fun interacting with him. It seems like he really takes an interest in everything now, especially our food. The only problem is he is back to not sleeping again. The last few nights I have been up 3 to 4 times which is killing me. The hard part too is that he is eating each time so I am not sure if this is ANOTHER growth spurt or what.

Glad he is growing well and is so big! It is a pain to go to the Dr. but worth it to make sure he's ok. We have to go today for an unscheduled appt and it's a pain for sure. He will go back to sleeping too - Sean woke up tons at about 4 months too. Silly babies! :)
ReplyDeleteA trip to CMH should be worth it to see me! I hope it turns out to be nothing.
ReplyDeleteAnd I hope this isn't the case but Mattie was sleeping through the night until 4 months and it all went down hill from there. I always thought they were supposed to sleep better when they got older my little Mattie is the opposite!
