4 month check up



Well...looks like we have a long, lean model type in our midst...doctor's words, not ours! 40th percentile for weight and 90th (yes ninetieth!) percentile for height. Our beautiful baby girl weighs 12 lbs, 10.6 oz. and is 25 1/2 inches long.

Basketball lessons are currently being investigated ;)

Zoe got 2 more shots and another oral vaccine at the appointment...that was after other tortures, including about 10 attempts to get her blood oxygen level and the very popular swab-up-the-nose procedure, to investigate this month-long cough that she's been suffering through. Doc thinks its non-RSV bronchiolitis. To add to all the other cruelties, Dr. Monroe demonstrated how to do a baby version of a neti pot treatment on Zoe...that one was interesting! So now we are doing baby neti pot treatments twice a day to deal with mucus and she got a baby version of an inhaler to help her lungs not have to work so hard. When they were done with us an hour and 45 minutes later we got out of there fast before they could inflict any more torture!

Zoe was a little fussy last night from the shots, but when we got home she was just delightful and wanted to show off her legs in her new dress...which she also thinks is fun to eat!
