Wellness Update-5/6/09

Today Bruce had his 2 month pediatrician visit. The doctor said he was doing great, no more jaundice and he was impressed by Bruce's neck/head control. Bruce is hitting all his development milestones. Smiling has moved from "spontaneous" to "social", he is making vowel sounds (eh and ah), making eye contact and tracking objects, and is starting to grab/hold things. He is now weighing 11 lbs 13.6 oz and is 21.75 in long.

Bruce received his first series of immunizations today and took it like a real trooper. He received 3 shots in the thigh and 1 oral vaccination, to prevent Hepatitis B, Polio, Pneumococcal Disease, Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis (Whooping Cough), Rotavirus, and Hib (influenza type b). He's fighting through the pain today, taking Tylenol as needed. The camouflage colored bandaids make it all better.

Next visit will be at Month 4 (early july).
