Our little girl is getting so big!

Our little girl is getting so big! We brought her in for her weight check yesterday and she is officially 12lbs 2oz, holy cow! So we've up'd her dose of Propranolol. She starts daycare Monday and personally I'm terrified since I won't be there. I know it's best for everyone right (we like to eat after all) but this transition is going to be a bit difficult. I just want to get through next week at this point. Then she has her follow-up down at the Mayo on the 25th of Mayo and hopefully that goes well. It's been great not having any real news to report here!!! Well that's it for now, hope everyone is doing well, God bless!

Another update

Dr. Porter (the EP) called yesterday to let us know her levels were good and we should increase her dose when she hits 12lbs. He's also sending out a letter to go over how we should handle further dose increases (ie. how many milligrams per kilo). I thought for sure she'd be at 12lbs by today's weight check but she proved me wrong, she's 11lbs 10.5oz. So probably next week and then I think we can go to weight checks bi-weekly or even every 4 weeks depending on what weight the next dose increase should be since she's averaging an ounce a day gain. That's the medical update.

For other news, she's trying so darn hard to roll over to her belly, if only she could get the arm underneath to cooperate! She's smiling up a storm and on the verge of laughing. I can't believe she's 2 1/2 months old already! We thank god every day for our precious gift. :)

Quick Update

Just a quick update, Sweet Pea had her weight check on Wednesday and she's up to 11lbs 5oz so she's growing like a weed. Also, we got her trough levels back today from the blood draw last Thursday and her level was 110. So that being said, therapeutic range is 50 to 100. I don't know if they will want to adjust down her meds or what they'll do from here. The bad thing is that the lab took so darn long that those levels are a week old already. I have no patience. :) I guess we just wait and see what the specialist says.

Check-up

We got home from the hospital Thursday night and it's been great being home, we've done all the running that needed to wait while we were in the hospital. We had Sweet Pea’s 2 month checkup yesterday. She was 10lbs 12oz and 23 inches, she was 7lbs 4oz and 19.5 inches at birth so she's growing great! I explained our new plan of action with the switch to Mayo and our pediatrician was completely supportive so that's great. She has to go back Thursday for another trough level check of the drug and another blood sugar check too just to be sure. He said she looked great though and is so impressed at her growth rate given everything she's been through the last two months. She got 4 shots though, that was rough, just 4 more pokes for the poor baby! Well that's our update. We hope everyone is doing well. Thanks again for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers!
