My poor, sweet baby! On Thursday, she had to go to the pulmonary doctor to get her Synagis shot (it prevents a lung disease/virus called RSV). She has received once a month since birth and only has one left now, thank goodness.
On Friday, she saw her pediatrician and received her 4 month vaccinations - 1 oral and 2 shots. She's been a little bipolar baby lately - going from fussy, fussy, fussy to happy and smiling.
Other updates... Rossleigh is now 12 pounds, 1 oz (she's nearly doubled her birth weight) and she's now 24 3/4 inches long (she's grown 5 inches in just 4 months)! She's growing like a little weed!!!

Worky Stuff and Appointments
Well, it's official...I returned back to work today (but only part time until the end of the year). I balled like a baby when I left Rossleigh before heading to work!!! I stayed pretty busy while I was at work, so I only cried twice while I was there. Yeahhhh, I know...I'm a wimp! I just didn't want to leave her. :( It will get easier with time, I'm sure.
On top of leaving her for the first time, she had vaccinations at her 2 month checkup this morning (poor planning on my part). Cuddling my little one when she was fussy was not in the cards for today - for me, anyway. THREE shots in her widdle wegs (that's "little legs" for those of you that don't speak babytalk) plus an oral vaccination. Poor baby! She's a little warrior though and she has the pink camo bandaids to prove it!! LOL
It turns out that she is 10 lbs, 10 oz now, but hasn't grown a smidge in length! So she's growing, but just in her tummy and cheekies!! Little stinker!
TOMORROW - swallow function study! Please pray that she is able to tolerate thinner fluids now. We're praying for regular milk consistency so that she can finally take breast milk, but we'll even settle for half nectar consistency. Even if she's still at the nectar stage, it's fine, but we're really hoping that she's had some muscle development and improvement in her throat. I'll give an update tomorrow with all the details of that!! :)
