Ahhh it's been forever since I updated and I have soooo many pictures I have yet to download. Sorry! This is just a quick update to say the girls' appointment with the pediatric gastroenterologist went fine today.
Apparently exercise is keeping them slim (I'll update on their activities in another post). They haven't really grown in length at all since their six month checkup with the pediatrician. We were kind of surprised because they looked longer - but we all figured it's because they are a bit leaner now.
Frances is 19 pounds and 27 inches. (75th percentile for weight and 50th for height).
Grace is 18 pounds and 27 inches. (50th percentile for weight and height).
[Updated to correct Grace's weight stat.]
We're going to start phasing out the Pepcid. And we're going start upping the amount of solids they eat. Apparently they are getting just the right amount of formula. So all is good.
When we go to their 9 month pediatrician appointment we have to get a referral for them to see an allergist. They have to get the skin test for the milk and soy allergy before we head back to see the pediatric GI again in June. I didn't delve into what would be the procedure going forward if they still have the allergy - I don't want to worry about it now if they get tested and it turns out they've already outgrown it. So we'll see....
I'll try to update more frequently, it's been really busy and now I'm wayyyy behind. The babies have changed so much too!
