Well baby 2 months

  Sabastian had his well-baby yesterday he looks good overall he is getting big really.

He is now 11 pounds and 23 inches long. It puts him in the 30th and 50th percentiles. I am happy with his growth. He is filling out everywhere and no longer looks so scrawny. His clothes also fit well now,like they were made for him, and not a little boy drowning is a sea of soft cloth.

Yeast is finally YAY!

He has eczema on his ears. That is all new for me, and an umbilical hernia. That should resolve itself. 

The other thing we noticed is his penis has 2 holes in it. I aksed about it and she thinks he should be good for now. He pees fairly okay (a little sideways) and it isnt causing him distress. If it causes probelms as he gets older then we will send him to a urologist, but for now we are waiting to see how it grows and functions. 

Overall he is doing well. I am waiting for his nursing to slowdown. I am so sore from his marathon nursing sessions. 

As for me, I get to visit the cardiologist on my birthday.

My blood pressure continues to be high and I am not responding to the only medication that is lactation safe. my blood pressure ranges on a daily basis from 140/90 to 170/120. we have no idea why my bp is so high. What triggered it, or how to get it down. 

The only thing she can think to do is ask me to wean to try different medication. Which she knows I will not do, and thus we are stuck trying to figure out a comprimise.

The b/p issue sounds scary! I hope they figure it out soon.

Evan has an umbilical hernia, but it never resolved. Not even a tiny bit 🙁 It doesn’t matter though as it doesn’t really pose a risk. Leah has one too but it is (mostly) gone. I hope his resolves on its own!

Juliet finally slowed down a little with her nursing, she was nursing almost nonstop in the evenings. Sounds like he’s doing awesome!! GL at the doc!

I’m glad she’s aware of Sebastion’s ‘thing’ and is willing to wait. My thing with waiting is that if it does need to be fixed, surely it’ll be easier when there’s more penis to work with, and I just don’t want to cause him pain. I say if he can pee and it doesn’t bother him, waiting it out is best.
