Doctor's Visit

Sorry everyone! I know it's been a while!

Carter had his second doctors appointment today. We are happy to announce that he's been taken off oxygen! We're still keeping it in the house for the next 10 days but we don't anticipate using it. We are only to use it if he's turning blue - that sounds terrible but has happened before.

He weighs 6lbs 7oz officially! He has been having some serious hunger cravings at night that he is extremely vocal about and we asked the doctor if we should feed him at will or stick to the three hour schedule that we've been fairly good about. Luckily we can feed him at will now as he is old enough to dictate his own schedule. This will help our (primarily Sandy's) sleep schedule immensely.

His head issue has grown back and it is concerning his pediatrician because she's not seen anything like it in her 25 year career. He is going to have another neuro consult soon for a second opinion.

We ran some errands today with Carter and he did quite well. Not fussy just sleepy. He's such a good boy and we are so thankful that he is so naturally strong and beautiful. We know he is our little blessing and thank God every day for him and each other.
