Hayden's 5 months!!!

My little boy is growing so fast. I love him so much. I feel like he's growing so fast that I can't even believe where the time has gone.
Erik took him to the doctor yesterday so we could get some answers on a couple of things that's been going on with him. He had this blood blister on his bottom that had burst a couple of days ago, and Erik and I were making sure to keep an eye on it. The doctor said that's it's healing nicely and everything was OK. There was also discussion about Hayden head, he has no only a bald spot on the back of his head, but he has his head sorta flat in an area. We wanted to make sure that we didn't need to get him a cradle cap or anything. Everything is looking good there, he said it should go away when he able to sit up more and more by himself. The next thing is he had this terrible rash on the back of his neck. It started as a stork bite and turned into this terrible rash that looked like it was spreading all over his back of his neck. He was prescribed a special cream to clear it up. I really hope it works. Hopefully, by next Monday we will see major improvement.

Other then that his breathing was discussed, I will be taking Hayden in to see a pulmonary specialist on the 19Th of April. I want to just be sure about Hayden's breathing, Even though he doesn't have a cold he's still wheezing and needs his neubilzer more then twice a day. Their going to do a CI x-ray at his appointment. I really hope everything is OK.

I have allot of time off in April. I might change it, but I have the 23rd a half day for school and April 30Th off as well. I'm needing to have sometime off but at the same time it would be nice to take a vacation this year.
I told Erik I would love for us to go as a family on a vacation but I guess we will have to see.

  1. I hope you get some answers at his next appointment! A vacation would be so much fun for the 3 of you! I know what you mean about time off. I'm trying to save up all my time so I can take time off for all of my appointments. I will be thinking of Hayden on the 19th!

  2. When Benjamin had his crooked head they told me the same thing, that it would straighten out with more Tummy Time. It didn't and he ended up having to go in and get a helmet. Just make sure you watch Hayden and if his head doesn't improve don't be afraid to tell the dr that you want the helmet.

    And take a vacation. Even if you don't go anywhere exotic, just having a few days away from work together will do wonders for your stress levels. Don't forget to enjoy life :)
