He also got his 4 month immunization shots (three total)! Poor guy...it just about broke my heart. For the first time, he had real tears and everything! He also had to get blood drawn to check different levels, including his iron. We are really hoping his iron is such that we can discontinue his iron supplement (should help with his pooping problems!). Plus, the formula he gets three times a day is iron fortified, so maybe that will be enough. Here are Finn's "battle wounds" from today:
Three blue camouflage for his immunizations and one Garfield on his arm for his labs. He was pretty upset for the rest of the day. I was not shy about giving him Tylenol, but he was fussy. He is in bed now, which is really early for him. I think he wore himself out.We also went to in for his post-op follow up appointment for his hernia surgery. Dr. Rich said that everything looks great. He reminded me that there is a higher percentage of reoccurrence because of how small he was when he had surgery, but to just watch for unusual swelling, especially when he is mad. This is also something Finn's regular doctor will check for during our regular visits.
Grandma left this afternoon. Both Finn and I were sad, but I think Finn wore her out a little bit (and I probably took advantage for having her here, too...I'll take sleep any way I can get it!). It was so helpful having another pair of hands and arms for cuddling Finn! Hopefully she will come back soon!
