2 year appt!

yay no shots

Andrew is 23 lb (3%), 33.5 inch (27%), and 48.5 cm head (46%).

His head has been on the same curve (good), his height is soaring, and his weight dropped 1 lb in the last month. I was a little disappointed to hear that since he has been more cooperative about eating, but she's assuming that's because of his surgery, but we need to go back in 3 months to make sure he's on track.

Obviously his expressive language is way behind, but she was happy to hear that his receptive language is good and that he's learning lots of new things. She didn't really have any new concerns, obviously just to continue ST/OT. We also still are waiting for biopsy results from his endoscopy and still have to follow-up about his immune system testing results being a bit low (but it probably isn't a big deal.) And he is followed by the developmental pediatrician in April. Hopefully we'll see major progress before his next appts in March-April.

Side note: I want to throw the "24 month" hand out they gave me in the trash. "Many children this age will say about 100 words..." haha. He has 3 months but still - why hand out "guidelines" if they don't want me to worry about it? Stick out tongue The ONLY thing that remotely applies to us is "should be weaned from a bottle".
