Doctor P

January 24th, 2007

We bailed on Little Gym today, due to Rees’s still-runny nose. Later in the morning, we took baby Jamie to his four-month doctor appointment. He’s close to average on length & weight, but his head is in the 97th percentile. That would explain why size “6-12 month” hats are getting tight on him. He got his second dose of the oral rotavirus innoculation, as well as three shots, which upset him quite a bit. The doc suggested I put hydrocortizone cream on the dry patches on his cheeks, along with some Aveeno lotion. He also prescribed Nystatin for the backs of his ears. He’s got some weird cradle-cap thing going on there that is pretty gross. I clean it as much as possible, but it just looks bad.

Rees was really good during the appointment, just sitting in a chair and reading books the whole time. Doctor P’s assistant, Judy, offered him some stickers for being so good. I am not sure what the choices were, but he came back with two big, glittery “My Little Pony” stickers on his shirt.
