One Month Checkup

Today Cash went to see Dr. Rogers for his one month checkup. I swear, this boy is growing like a weed! He is now 22 1/2 inches long, 9 lbs 10 oz, and head circum is 38. To sum it up, he is still gaining a pound a week!!!! He has gone from the 28th percentile to the 45th. Dr. Rogers checked everything out and said Cash looks great. He did put some silver nitrate on his belly button as he is still oozing a little bit and not fully healed. He said that should help and if it is still oozing next week to come in and we'd do it again. Cash really didn't seem to even notice Dr. Rogers sticking the stick into his belly button and swirling it around. I on the otherhand cringed! I remember going to the dr. every week and every two weeks and having them put that stuff on my wound from my surgery from my cyst. Oh how it stung! But then again, Cash didn't have an open wound in his belly. His test results came back from his newborn screening and everything was normal there as well. He goes back next month for his 2 month checkup. He isn't going to be too happy at this appointment as he gets all his shots then. Until next time... (Sorry, no pictures this time.)
