Hello!! Sorry that I have neglected the blog lately!! I am still adjusting to having a baby and a toddler...seems my time is used up!! Things are going pretty well, Mason seems to love his little sister.....although it is evident that he is feeling a little neglected by mom.
Here are some of the girls stats:
12/29:
wt= 8lbs 8oz
Length= 19.5 inches
1/15
wt=9lbs
length= 22 inches
Some concerns:
Teagan was born with a strawberry birthmark on her lower back.....because of the placement the doctor ordered an u/s. We had the u/s on 1/11 and received the results today at Teagan's 2 wk doc appt. The u/s showed that the birth mark was a surface mark only, not affecting the spinal chord.....(whew, relief!) but it also showed that she has a lipoma (fatty tissue)below her spinal chord and the radiologist suggested an MRI.....the doctor couldnt really tell us what it means or what they would be looking for, she stated that she would call the radiologist and try to get a better understanding for the recommendation. She also suggested that we would need to see a neurosurgeon and have a consult about it, before doing an MRI (baby would have to be sedated for an mri, so we are trying to avoid it if it is not necessary).Doctor said she would call us in the next few days with more info.
