We have been home a little over two weeks now and I think we are finally adjusted for the most part. Natalie is doing great! We had a weight check yesterday with our pediatrician, Dr. Scott. Natalie weighs 13lbs 10oz and her O2 levels are awesome for her! She does have a little eye infection, but we got drops for that so hopefully that will clear up soon.
Natalie is really starting to develop. She is trying so hard to sit up by herself. She can for a minute, but then normally falls to one side or the other. We go next week back to the doctor and meet with a physical therapist. We just want to stay proactive on her development, so she does not fall too far behind. She has only rolled over once, but I can't blame her. I would not want to roll over either onto my chest if someone cut it open.
If she can put it in her mouth, she will. Her two bottom teeth have broken through the gums finally. She is doing so much better on the baby food. It is so funny to me, Carter hated to get his hands dirty when he was little, if Natalie could she would stick her whole hand into the food bowl. She is going to be a messy eater.
Natalie is also sleeping through the night, which is a super blessing for me. We were waking her up to feed her to get the extra bottle in, but since it has been 7 weeks post-op, we decided to try and let her sleep through the night and so far (knock on wood) she is doing great!
Carter has been battling a sinus infection off and on for the past two months. Our pediatrician has gotten pretty aggressive, which I am so happy about. He is on two different medications and we do a breathing treatment at night before bedtime, to help the coughing. He has only been on everything for 3 days now and seems to be better in my eyes.
