Well we have been to the pediatrician 4 time on 2 weeks. Once was for a well baby check for Anna. She weighs 15 pounds 4 ounces and is 27 inches long she is still a little under weight but she is putting it on at least and her development is great.
Devin went twice to the doctor during week one for really dry scaly skin on his back. I was worried it was eczema, but the doctor said it was just dry patch so we need to put Vaseline Intensive Rescue lotion and use dove body was. We were already using scent and dye free detergent because of my skin so we will go from there. We are hoping it doesn't turn to eczema and poor baby seems to have inherited my sensitive skin.
Devin's second trip was after a few days after Anna's well baby appointment. He had stuff coming out of his left ear. Turns out it was puss. YUCK! Turns out he has pharyngitis and an upper respiratory infection. He is doing much better already. He had to get a prescription for an antibiotic which is his first time. We almost made to age 3 without antibiotics, we were hoping it would be longer, but what can you do. When they need them they need them.
Then the fourth trip was for Anna the night of Dylan's trip. We ended up in the E.R. because she had a 105 degree fever. They looked her over said she was OK. There has been a virus going around down here that causes high fever and vomiting she had gotten sick once. They sent us home at about 3am with orders to to give her Motrin or Tylenol. So yeah no antibiotics! She is doing much better. No fever but she does have a little cough but it is going away.
So hopefully we will not be seeing the doctor for another 3 months when Anna has her next well baby check! Talk to you later!
Love, Dora
