4 Month Check-up

Where has the time gone? It is hard to believe that Josh is already 4 months old. Here are his stats:

Head: 17.5 inches, 90-95%
Height: 27.25 inches, 95%
Weight: 14.4 pounds, 25%

The doctor was happy with his growth, said that even if he was eating more he probably wouldn't weigh anymore. Not all kids have to be super chubby, right? I asked the doctor about Josh sleeping through the night and he said that it would be fine. So I think I will work with Josh on getting him to go through the entire night. He has slept through a couple of times, and more often than not when he gets up to nurse he falls right back to sleep.

Josh has had a cough and after Dr. Sims listened to his chest he thought that Josh might have bronchiolitis. So now we have a nebulizer and medicine to give to Josh ever 4-6 hours until his cough goes away. Hopefully he will get better sooner than later.

Oh, Warren had bronchiolitis. So sad to have to shove that thing on his face. Get better, little Josh!

I'm glad it was really something. It is so frustrating when they don't listen to mommies. He did sound bad but being the good baby that he is it didn't even seem to bother him.
