Back to the Dr…
Gavin hasn’t been his usual cheery self for the last couple days so I took him to the Dr yesterday to get his ears checked again since he was acting a lot like he was when he had an ear infection a few weeks ago. But nope, the ears were clear. This time his throat was red. The Dr said probably just a virus and to let it run its course. They also weighed him again and he was 17 lbs 11 oz! I knew he had been going through a growth spurt but… WOW. Even the nurse had to do a double take! Anyway, today he seems to be feeling a bit better and is back at daycare. Hopefully this will be a short bug.
Oh, and in other exciting news, we have had several episodes of sleeping through the night in the last week. He hasn’t done it every night, but as long as we stick to his bedtime feeding schedule, he seems to do really well. Here’s how it goes: Around 7:30 pm, he nurses, then about 30-45 min later he has some cereal, then he takes a bath, then he takes a bottle, then to bed by 9 pm. No wonder he weighs so much, huh? Oh well, whatever gets us through the night!
