Presurgery Appointment

Today we saw Dr. Chris for Logan's presurgery physical. She is still blown away by how well he is doing considering how early he was born. She confirmed that his belly button is no longer herniated and that he just has an outie! She also told us that if our insurance will cover his synagis shots again this RSV season we should get them because his lungs are still immature. When she looked in his mouth she confirmed what we suspected...his top two teeth are on the verge of cutting through! We are going to start giving him a little bit of whole cow's milk to transition him by his first birthday. Now for his stats!!! He weighs a whoppin' 20 lbs today!!! WOOHOO!! That was our goal for 1 year! He is in the 24th percentile, so he is definitely catching his peers! He is 28 3/4 inches and is in the 40-something (oops, we forget!) percentile. His big old head is 46 cm and is in the 55th percentile! Dr. Chris also said that the amount of anesthesia needed for his procedure is very light so he should recover well. Keep your fingers crossed that the eye doctor and actual surgery go as well as today!
