4 Months Today

Makayla is 4 months today and as each month goes by I get a little more sad (don't get me wrong I love how she is growing and learning things and changing so much, but it still makes me sad). I don't think I will ever stop saying this....she is growing too quickly. On Wednesday I took her for her 4 month shots and I thought I was going to cry. I was dreading taking her there, having to hold her down while they stick both of her legs is just awful. Well she did really well, she definitely did not like getting her needles (2 in one leg and 1 in the other), but she is starting to pay attention to toys so when the nurse tried to distract her from crying with a rattle, it actually worked! That made Mommy happy! On Friday she had her 4 month check up, the Doctor didn't have too much to say...she is happy, healthy and tiny! She is in the 25Th percentile so he said that he will be keeping an eye on her size, but other than that she is pretty good. If you refer back to a post I made a while back about her lovely bowel movements, I did try going off of dairy for a couple of weeks and it didn't really change anything, so I started to eat it again. Anyway, the Doctor said that if she still has the mucous at six months he is going to refer us to a gastrointestinal specialist. I am really hoping that it clears up on its own really soon.
