Grant had his 4 month check-up today. Our doctor had a nurse practitioner intern rotating with him today, and she could have been saying this just because we looked like concerned parents, but she just kept saying, "He looks amazing! This is all such good news!" So sweet.
And it was good news. Great news. He weighs 12 lbs, 8.5 oz, which puts him in the 51th percentile on the DS growth chart (up from the 28th percentile two months ago). His length also jumped to 22.5 inches, which is in the 24th percentile. His little hernia is much smaller than it was 2 months ago, and he has "remarkable" head control :). Go Grant. Go Go Go Grant.
He didn't love the vaccines part of the visit, though.
I LOVED
this story on abcnews.com today. Thank you, dear Libby, for sending it to me. It comforts and inspires me so much to know of other families who are also walking this path--and realizing the incredible, unexpected joys that come along with it. The community is deep and supportive and smart and happy. I am proud to be a part of it and am grateful for their fellowship.
Goodnight!
