Well today was Gray's follow-up appointment with the Pulmonologist Dr F... the amazing doctor that I just LOVE... well we had a late start... got stuck in traffic and almost missed our appointment... but we made it! Grayson did great... lungs sound clear... so we will continue with the current meds... but we added a nasal spray for at night to hopefully help with his post nasal drip and clear up the night time cough... but we will see... also we will be using a nasal wash at bath time... we will see how that goes tonight... I am fearful of doing it... but I hope it will help and work!!! SO the plan is to do all this and see her again in June... once spring hits we will see how he does... and at that appointment we will reassess his condition and hopefully wean him off the steroid during the summer! Normally kids with asthma have issues during the winter but during the summer clear up SO the plan will be to take him off meds in the summer and then restart once the winter comes back... but we will have to wait and see! But at least I am hopeful!
After that appointment we RUSHED back to this side of town for his 18 month pediatrician appointment! In the last week my mom commented a few times about how he looks bigger... I knew his 2t pants were fitting better... BUT didn't really see him getting bigger... I still see my little man! Well his 12m stats were 31 in and 23 lbs... he is now 33 3/4 in so almost 34 in and 26.5 lbs... so he grew almost 3 in and 3.5 lbs in 6 months... I know in the first year they grow a lot... but still he is getting HUGE!!! I can hardly believe how big he is really! Also he was impressed with everything about Gray... still dissappointed about his lack of speech but we will overcome that also!
SO this is what has been going on! Will up-date with pics and more later!
