Graham did great at his appointment today. He cried when he got his injections, but fell asleep within 3 minutes afterwards. No more immunizations until he is 4 months old! He weighs 12 lbs 4 oz (68%) and is 24 1/4 inches long (91%). As you have seen in his pictures, he is really starting to fill out. His cheeks are full and he has fat rolls on his arms and legs! We love our fat boy.
Overall, Graham is doing well and is developmentally appropriate for his age. The left side of his head continues to be flatter than the right, but we are working on it. We sit and play on the right side of Graham to make him turn his head that way and I will turn his head to the right side when he is sleeping. He has started to turn his head immediately back to the left though. Apparently, Graham is just as stubborn as I am!
We tried supplementing with soy formula as well as cutting dairy out from my diet to see if this helped with his milk protein allergy. We can tell a difference in Graham's grumpiness, but he has continued to have blood in his stools. The doctor said to stop the soy formula and use the expensive kind. We should be able to tell a difference within 36 hours. We are crossing our fingers this does the trick.
