Emma's doctors appointment went well.
She is 25.5 inches tall and weighs 13.9 lbs.
She had to get the same vaccinations as last time (one given orally and two shots).
She only cried for a brief second then everything was back to normal...until 3 hours later...she threw-up (scared me to death! but this happens to 1 out of 50 babies-so the research says...). Luckily Jason was home because she soaked me and herself! She was very tired that night and didn't have much of an appetite (which happens to some babies after vaccinations) She was not quite herself for about 24-36 hours but now she's back to her active, happy self.
We are changing her formula and starting her on oatmeal (given with a spoon-messy) once a day in addition to her normal feedings. The doctor wants us to do this for a couple weeks then replace one of the normal feedings with oatmeal-after she gets used to this we can start her on baby fruits and veggies. We are doing this because (like her daddy when he was a baby) her stomach is not digesting all of the formula (meaning she spits up A LOT) so the doctor thinks the solid stuff will stay
down better.
