I took Porter to his 2 month check-up today.
12 lbs. 11 oz. 22 & 1/2 inches long
The nurse: "Does he turn towards noise?"
Mom: "Yes."
The nurse: "Does he follow you with his eyes?"
Mom: "Yes."
The nurse: "Does he smile when you talk to him, make noises, coo?"
Mom: "Yes!"
The nurse: "Does he sleep through the night?"
Mom: "No..." (but he does have a good 5-6 hour stretch!)

The doctor (whom I love) showed me neck stretches...which made Porter cry...
He checked inside Porter's mouth...which made Porter gag...
The nurse gave my baby boy three shots...he cried...I cried.
I don't like doctor visits.
But the doctor did comment on what a cute, alert, and healthy baby I have...which made it a LITTLE better.

It was so fun visiting with you! You are such a wonderful mother.
ReplyDeleteits ok tiff. all moms i think cry when there babies get shots. just think u dont have to do it again for 2 more months..
ReplyDeleteHow cute...I'm sorry that is hard. My niece Maleah is 20 months old and she hates the doctor too. Even if it's just Sara who has a doctors appt. as soon as she walks through those doors she knows exactly where she is at. She is getting better though! You are super cute! I'm sure being a mommy is great! Love you and miss you much!
ReplyDeleteOh, poor baby and mom. At least it's over with and now you know what to expect. Did anyone go with you? He is such a cute little guy, give him a kiss from his auntie!
