Drew's Checkup Update

Friday, April 9, 2010

Just a quick update on Drew's checkup today. He weighed a whopping 7 lbs., 6 oz. - three ounces more than his birth weight and definitely a plus. The doctor was very impressed by his weight, color, and overall health. He did note that Drew had two blocked eye ducts that would require treatment in the form of massage and ointment. Easy fix. I raised my concern about his tongue tie. The doctor did agree that he did have it, but it was completely up to us if we wanted to correct it or not. Unfortunately, he told me that there's only two times during a child's life where they can tell if tongue tie is going to effect the child - now, when they might have issues eating and when they're older and it effects their speech. Please pray for guidance and discernment for Matt and I as we decide on what to do. Other than that, Drew is doing fantastic and already well on his way to be a big boy like his brother! Praise God for his mercies and blessings!
