81/365: Appointments



This morning I had a midwife appointment (half the baby weight gone... wouldn't it be nice if the other half would melt off over the next two weeks?!) and this afternoon baby boy had his 2 week pediatrician check up. He passed with flying colors. Unfortunately, we had to do the second PKU test today. I hate that test. It seems so mean to squeeze the poor babies foot repeatedly for over a minute to produce enough blood to saturate the paper. Couldn't there be an easier way to screen?
"G" was a trooper though. He screamed through the whole procedure, but quickly returned to sleep and slept the entire car ride home :)
