Today, Avery is two months old. And today, he had his two month well child check up. I have to say, I am extremely proud of the fact that my exclusively breathed baby is already 13 lbs and 2 oz. And he is 23 and 1/4 inches. When he was born, he was 7 lbs 10 oz and 21 inches long. He had dropped down to 7 lbs 4 oz when we were discharged. His pedi was very impressed. He is in the 50th percentile for his height. 70Th for his weight. And 25th for his head circumference.
He has hit all of the milestones for his age, and more. He smiles, coos, rolls over, follows us with his eyes. And all the normal things that a two month old does. He does not however pee all over like I hear most little boys do. Knock on wood.
The past threw appointments we haven't actually seen the kids pedi, but their nurse practitioner. Today, we saw his pedi. But she really doesn't have anything she could tell me. She said She doesn't even know what to tell me to expect to hear from the neurosurgeon. But, she did say that he is an amazing doctor. Fingers crossed.
There are exactly two weeks until Avery's appointment at strong with the neurosurgeon. I'm getting so anxious. The way I handle not knowing, or having to think about my baby going through such a surgery varies. Sometimes I'm calm. Other times it gets to me, and I can't hold back the tears. Times like that I'm extremely thankful for the support system I have. Chris booked us a room in Rochester. Thank you so much. Were so lucky for the amazing people in our lives.
