Today we went to the pediatrician...
The big question was is she gaining weight?
Well the verdict is in... She did gain some.
She is now exactly 11 Pounds!
She gained 9 ounces since her last appointment about 2 weeks ago. The Dr. was ok with it! So that's good. She is now eating 4 ounces each feeding and eating every 3 hrs during the day. We are all just happy she's back on the upward climb without having to add any extras. She also got her next months Synagis shot! Oh the poor girl!
She was really good at the doctors today. She didn't cry when weighed, she didn't cry when he was examining her... BUT BOY did she freak when she got that dang shot!! She turned blue, and I think passed out, she was just exhausted afterwards and had a little glaze in her eyes. It takes her sometime to regain her oxygen levels after that! :( The Dr. always asks how her spells are... and I always say stick around for these shots and you can experience them! But really those are the main times she has her major spells now! We hope that can improve.... They are freaky!
Overall it was a positive visit. Weight gain check, lungs sounded clear check, ears good check, another protective synagis shot check!
Those darn synagis injections...Trinity had to get those injections as well...I hated those, and so did she. They protect the lungs very well, but dang, those shots suck. She is a cutie pie though!!! xoxoxoxo
