So Nicholas and Brooklyn had well baby check ups in the last couple of weeks. I'll start with Brooklyn. She is doing well and growing great. She can roll tummy to back, started cereal but not a huge fan, plays with her rattles and toys all the time. She got her 4 month shots and took them like a champ. She weights 15.8 oz and 25 1/4 inches long! She is growing so fast. She is getting to be such a good baby and such a blessing to our family.
Nicholas on the other hand is not growing so well. He only grew 1 inch in the last 6 months which only brings him to 31" and he is 24.6 pounds. Not even on the charts. So after discussing Nicholas past medical problems our pedi decided to do a follow up MRI to make sure nothing was going on that were not aware of since he still is not talking at all, only baby babble and not really growing. So today was the day for that MRI. I think it was worst on me then him but we all survived. Actually it broke my heart when the nurses came to get him and had us wait in the waiting room. He had to be sedated and spent all morning at the hospital. The whole sedation thing scares me to no end. He recovered well as he flirted with all the nurses and ran laps around the hall with Daddy.
He also lapsed with therapy. He was re-evaluated and back at the level of a 12 month old in some areas and 15 months in other areas. He also does not talk a solid word either. So back on developmental therapy once a week while we are on a waiting list for speech and physical therapy once a week.
