Olivia's first pediatrician appointment went GREAT this morning! She has managed to gain 3 oz in 3 days!!! She now weighs 4 lbs 12 oz! Dr. Antone said that is the same/more than full-term babies gain in 3 days. He was very pleased! He also shared his discussion with Dr. Desai, the Neonatalogist at St. Joe's. Most importantly, because Olivia and Cole are at such a high risk for RSV due to being born prematurely with heart and lung problems, family history of asthma, being multiples, and having an older sibling who attends school; he is going to try to see that they get the Synagis shots. YAY!!!!
We asked Dr. Antone about visitors as we are very anxious to introduce Olivia and Cole to all of you. We have been urged to limit visitors as much as possible and to not allow children, other than Luukas and my nephew J.J. who is visiting from NYC this week, to visit with Olivia and Cole just yet since it is the middle of cold, flu, and RSV season. Please understand that we truly want you all to share in this exciting time with us. At the same time, we must protect Olivia and Cole from getting sick.
PLEASE READ THE POST What is RSV and what does it mean to YOU?! FOR MORE INFORMATION.
