Good News!

It's just a cold. Have you ever looked forward to hearing those words?! I took Kinzie in today rather than our scheduled appt on Monday just to see before the weekend hit. Her fever is holding at 100.2 F but she got even more congested last night. So I packed up the car with a crazy 2 year old and my sick, sleepy, angelic 3 month old (yes, that's right 3 months already). I will never do that again. Emma has always gone to a friend's house to play so this was the first time to the doctor's with me. "Oh My!"

Anyway, first we went to the lab to have her blood drawn for a sodium check which by the way finally reached the right level last week. This time was to see if we need to maintain the dose of saline or back-off a bit.

Next, we went to the doctors and found that the urine analysis UA looked great and thus this is probably not a UTI! yeah. Her lungs sounded good, her fever was still there but doctor ruled it just a cold! Emma is already over it so hopefully Kinzie will be soon too.

Also, the SUPER GREAT NEWS: In four days she has gained 2 oz PER DAY! Now weighing in at 10 lb. 14 oz. Yes, that is 2 away from 11 lb! It's also 1 lb. more than Emma when Emma was born! Yikes! So we crossed from the 19% into the 20% percentile for weight.
