I'm Big... I'm Strong... & I'm free of wires!!
Things are very exciting at my house this week. I had an appointment with my Dr. John yesterday and just wait until you hear what's happening with me!!!
I'm so big I weigh 18 lbs 13 ozs now - can you believe that?? I'm so strong that I'm now in the 6th percentile for growth on the full term growth chart!!! AND I don't have to use my apnea monitor anymore!!! WOW - I'm really excited about that because the sticky pads on my chest made my skin itchy and I got a rash every time Mum or Dad had to put them on me. I didn't like them... and Mum and Dad are happy because now they don't have to hear the monitor screach with the loose connection warning. I haven't had any apnea in well over a month, and I have been off my caffeine for even longer. I'm really growing up now.
AND.... know what else??? I don't have to use the special formula any more either! Mum and Dad can start giving me some normal formula, the Nestle Good Start, and every day I am more and more like a full term baby.
Today I tried some whole milk, and I really liked it. I also tried some pear yogurt (YoBaby yogurt) but I wasn't too sure about that right now. Maybe I'll give that a try again another day. I really like apples and apricots, apples and blueberries, and most fruit that isn't too tart. I like sweet veggies too... like the orange group... is that a food group in itself?? hmmmmmm
Well, I have to nap now.... bye bye for now - I love you all! xxoo
