Oh damn, I just got to the end of the other post and was all fired up to write replies to everyone and now I lost my train of thought..has to be done though doesn't it Kathryn? 26 pages is a significant post and of course it is the 1st of nov today!
Okay well Ambah I can totally relate to the half a year old thing, they grow WAY too fast..Felix is only 2 weeks behind Aidyn (just wish he weighed as much)
Kelly I hope Emma improves, you know Felix has had more poos since he was 4 mths old after months of being down to 1 a day..I hope it's not the weight gain reason.
Well I went to see Dr today, one for his blocked tear duct whgich has been really bad lately, (it gets glued when he wakes up in the morning) He has had it since birth but usuallyI can get trid of the discharge with a bit of breast milk and saline, but this time it just keeps getting worse..so we had a swab for that.
As for weight gain, Dr wasn't too impressed with it, but wasn't panicking either. She took a urine sample (those baby wee baggies are too funny) and she said in 2 weeks if he still hasn't gained properly that we will look into things further eg refer him to a peditrictan. He has his needles in 2 weeks so it works out perfectly..
He had his stats done and he is still 7.1kgs and now 69 cms tall...! So in 6 weeks he has grown 4 cms but put on only 20 grams! Long and lean..
the Dr felt he was happy and healthy and developmentally doing fine, so things are okay right now but she will be keeping an eye on it..obviously I will be going to clinic every week to check his weight..anyhow..he is displaying all the "healthy signs" the nurse there said maybe that is his build! I wouldn't mind a few more fat rolls, he needs help holding his pants up!
