The two-week check up!
Isaac had an appointment with the pediatritian today. He got weighed, measured, listened to and looked at! The jaundice we had been watching is gone and he is back over his birth weight! His current measurments are 8lbs 12oz and 22 inches long. He's around the 50th percentile for his weight and about 90 for his height! We will see how long that keeps up! With such short parents, I suspect he will grow out of it, but we will see! His head is about 14.5inches, which is also right around the 50th percentile compared to other babies his age. Over all, he is a happy and healthy little boy!

Both my kids had a little jaundice (as most babies do). Josh's was the worst, they kept having me come in to check him for the first two weeks straight! I guess it was pretty high (he was very yellow, as were his eyes) but it never got bad enough that we had to do light therapy. His poor little feet were so pricked though!
that sounds about like Isaac's jaundice. He got to the point that they debated having him treated, but he looked good, so they gave him another day and the numbers started dropping. You can still see a lot of the little cuts on his feet.
