Max’s NICU Follow-Up

I totally meant to post this last week, but I forgot! We had Max's big 6 month (actually 5 month) post-release appointment!

We saw the neonatologist, neurologist, physical therapist, dietician, case worker (nurse), social worker and respiratory therapist! It was a 2.5 hour long appointment and Max did great the whole time!

Everyone is totally thrilled with his progress, the ONLY exception being that the dietician wants him fatter, so we're mixing his formula to be higher calorie (24 cal/oz. instead of 22)

He's 25.5 inches long, 13 lbs. 10 oz. He's about 10th percentile for his adjusted age (based on his original EDD of 7/7). He's on the chart for his actual age (his 4/17 real birthday) for one thing… head size! LOL (I'm just glad I didn't have to deliver that gigantic head!)

We have his eye appointment in February, where we'll deal with his lazy/crossed eye thing (leftover from his ROP issues)

We got to take him off another med, so now it's just the reflux meds!

We are *THISCLOSE* to having a clean bill of health!

Welcome, I'm so glad you're here! Thing number one, I'm tall. I've been told I should have a warning on my blog, so here it is! I am taller in real life than I appear on the internet.
