2 month appointment

Alex and Aiden had their 2 month appointment yesterday.

Alex:
  • 10 pounds 2 ounces and 20 inches long
  • We will need to watch carefully for ear and sinus infections because of his bad case of reflux. He has constant conjestion and possibly aspirates because of the reflux.
  • Has just begun smiling and can track with his eyes pretty well. All on track for "5 week old" This is his adjusted age when looking at developmental growth.
  • Continue on oatmeal thickened formula and Prevacid. We will start spoon feedings about 3 1/2 months. He already takes the cereal in a bottle and the thicker spoon feedings will help with the reflux also.
  • Received 2 month shots. Slept much of the day. They put both boys on Tylenol for 24 hours to prevent fever and other possible side effects.
Aiden:
  • 10 pounds 8 ounces and 20 1/2 inches long.
  • Is smiling and tracks well. Doing wonderful developmentally. Still a little ahead of Alex.
  • Medicine and cereal same as Alex
  • Ran fever from shots and rather cranky, but much better this morning.

We go back in November for their 4 month and will also do Wesley's 3 year check up at the same time.
