Let's see...most likely a by-product of being a teacher and surrounded by very germy students who love to get right in your face and tell you just how sick they've been lately. I believe I infected our entire family! I was diagnosed with bronchitis and a sinus infection on Monday. I had been sick for almost a week before I finally got in to see a doctor. The first time in five years (non O.B. related of course), Jason was showing symptoms of the same a few days after me. I took the kids (Nick and Kate) for their well-baby checks to find out they they BOTH had ear infections. Kate has developed some wheeziness and coughing and soon Jonathan succombed with the fever and cough. So...we are alive and are on the mend and although we enjoyed the snow today, we are all ready for Spring!
Kate weighed in at 22 lbs (50th% height/50th% weights), and Nick, just a bit ahead at 23.5lbs (25th% for height and >5th% for weight). Dr. Lively was not concerned at all with Nick as he has continued to move along the growth chart at the same pace he's always been since he was born...just destined to be a little guy...but we are convinced he'll surprise us all one day.
Nick was not a happy boy at the Doctors office. There was no dignity in being in just a diaper...so he insisted he keep his coat on.
Kate had MULTIPLE shots...even more than usual due to her being to sick during her last check to have them all. Poor baby.Kate had her follow-up with Dr. Gatti (Ped. Urologist) a couple of weeks ago. She had a sonogram and it did show that she still has dilation in her right kidney (to be expected) She has her final (we hope) procedure scheduled for Tuesday at Children's Mercy in Same Day Surgery. She will have her stint removed and will have to be put under again for it at 7am. We are not sure it will go as planned due to her latest illness....but are certainly ready to get this ALL behind us. She will have to have another VCUG done again soon just to reevaluate if there is any residual reflux into the kidney.
