doctor updates

Mia had her surgery follow-up appointment on Tuesday. Everything looked just fine and we were in and out of the office in no time. She gave the surgeons huge smiles and that made their day.

Wednesday, we had our follow up with Dr. Selig...who told me that when she found the 'mass' she truly thought it was a tumor. Boy, all of our prayers truly were answered in that the mass was just a hernia. I am so thankful this is behind us. Anyhow, the visit went fine, Mia did cry the entire time for Dr. Selig but when it came time for her shots, she did amazingly well. She is measuring at 22 inches, weighing in at 10 lbs 8 oz, only about 20 percentile for her age. The doctor wasn't too concerned as she is growing in length and head size...we'll check it out in 6 weeks when we go back for her 4 month shots! We also received a prescription for zantac to help with Mia's fussiness in the event that she is experiencing GERD. But she really hasn't been nearly as fussy as before her surgery so we are hoping the worst is behind us.

Now to tackle these sleeping patterns....our goal is by 4 months for her to be sleeping in her crib (she is still in her bassinet in our room). Wish us luck!
