Finally Seeing A Good Weight Gain

It was time for Evan's monthly Synagis shot today. The upside to it is that we get a weight check on him. Today he weighed 18 pounds 11 ounces, which is is 1 pound 5 ounce gain in one month. He still has a long way to go to get caught up on weight, but he's getting closer to that 20 pound milestone. The nurse told us he only has one more Synagis shot for this season at the end of April.

Dr. Hassan (the gastroenterologist) is keeping Evan on the Prevacid a bit longer. He wants us to wean him off of it (day on/day off) for 30 more doses (so 2 months longer). It will be nice not having to ambush Evan every morning to dump the granules into his mouth (he's getting good at anticipating it).
