6th month check up

Randall took Mac to see Dr. Luy today for his 6 month check-up and shots. She said he is doing great, exactly what a 4 months old (his corrected age) should be doing. He weighed 14 pounds, 12 ounces, and is 25 1/2 inches long. She did take him off his Reglan (for acid reflux). We had to take him to the hospital to get some blood drawn to see if we can take him off the iron. I am glad that Emma had to suddenly go to the bathroom when we got there so I wasn't in the room while they drew blood. They had to stick Mac twice, and they blew the vein in his arm. My poor baby!! Dr. Luy did give Randall a little exercise for us to do a couple of times daily so he can learn to balance. We are in the process of getting him evaluated to see if he will qualify for some other services such as physical and occupational therapy. Hopefully that will work out!!
