Well actually 13 month stats. Let me explain....
I can't even really remember when Kaitlyn was fully healthy. Whenever it was was WAY before her birthday on June 27th. We have been through a lot the past couple of months including but not limited to:
Ear infection
Cough
which turned into Croup
Cold
Yeast infection
which developed from the antibiotics used to treat the Ear infection
Many different kinds of treatments (and doctors visits) for the Yeast infection (that didn't work)
Horrible excema outbreak
which was originally thought to be a Heat Rash
Hmmm. is that it? All of that adds up to 1 miserable baby, a lot of time and energy from mommy and daddy, and a million dollars in co-pays. Needless to say - I was extrememly concerned when I took her for her 12 month shots today (they won't do a well visit unless she is actually well and it took until she was 13 months to actually keep this appointment!)
So today she had the controversial MMR vaccine. It took several discussions with the front desk, 3 nurses, and the actual pediatrician to come to an agreement. We would delay the other 2 shots for now and just give the MMR. I feel good about that decision.
And her stats:
25 lbs/8oz (STILL 95%)!!
30.5 inches (STILL 75%)!!
She is right on track with where she should be. No pictures today but I will add more soon - rest assured!!
Jo at her 12 month appointment was 23.5 pounds and 30.5 inches, they're so similar! I'm sorry it's been a tough couple of months, sounds like a lot has been going on. Things will get better with time! If I lived near you we could hang out with both of our cranky babies haha
