Well Miles had his four month doctors appt today and it didnt go as well as the two month appt. He had to get more shots same ones as last time but he didnt handle it as well as he did the first time around. They also had to draw blood to see if he is allergic to milk because his skin is really really dry and they think it might be an allergic reaction to milk. I have to double check to see if the formula we use has milk in it. My baby is one small boy that is for sure. Here are his stats.
Weight: 10 lbs 8 ounces=1 percentile
Height: 24inches= 25 percentile
Head:16= 15 percentile
The doc is not to concern about his weight he just says he is a small boy. I have decided that I am not going to nurse anymore because I dont think I am producing enough for him and ever since Christmas time he has been fighting nursing. I am kind of bum about it but I am glad that I lasted 4 months (that is more than some people do). The doctor is hoping that with just formula and starting the solid foods it will help put some weight on.
On Jan 11th we have to go to Miles other doc to schedule his surgery for his testicle. The doctor today still couldnt find his left testicle so I believe the other doc on the 11th will have the same troubles. I think they may do another ultrasound just to make sure they arent missing anything. Either way though he will have the surgery.
Other than being a small boy Miles is doing awesome. He still sleeps through the night which I love so much. He is such a happy boy and is getting more entertaining every day. He loves holding onto a raddle and shaking it. He laughs and smiles more and more and it just makes my heart so happy.
