GI Specialist

This afternoon Melanie went back to the GI Specialist (she and her daddy have a lot in common here). Mel last saw Dr. Bax in July, and they seemed pleased with her progress today. She is 14lbs, 1oz, and 27 inches. She gained three pounds in three months (not quite on track for where she needs to be!) - but overall doing well. We changed her "recipe" for formula to increase her caloric intake once again. Dr. Bax was impressed with her development and everything else, and doesn't seem concerned with anything at this point. We'll continue monitoring her progress and hope that she gets some meat on her bones for the Indiana winter that is ahead!

Melanie has had a couple instances this week of separation anxiety AND stranger anxiety. She cried when Daddy dropped her off at daycare Monday morning - cried again at the drycleaner man and when Dr. Bax tried to use his stethescope on her. Our tough little girl is growing up!
