4 Month Doctor's Appointment
Well, Layne had her 4 month visit today. We waited in the waiting room for an hour and a half! The total visit was 2 1/2 hours long. Dr. Jattan is the only doctor in the office for now and they are swamped! We really like her a lot, or we would be looking for another office that didn't have such a long wait. Thankfully, both girls were very good the entire time. Hayden ended up getting a flu shot-she has to go back in a month and get another one. Here are Layne's stats: Height 25 1/4 inches (normal), head circumference 40 1/2 cm (normal), and weight 12 pounds 6 ounces (a little below normal). The doctor is not concerned about the weight at all. Hayden weighed 13 pounds at 4 months....so she is tinier than Hayden now!! She ended up getting 3 shots and an oral vaccine. She did well with it all though. Layne also has a strawberry hemangiomas on her lower back. You can click on the term to get more info. But basically it is a birthmark that will grow until she's around a year and then it will slowly go away! I will take a picture of it for you once Layne wakes up from her nap.....it's been a long morning.
