scooter


lucy had her 1 year check-up today with dr. surka. other than the fact that it took two hours and was during naptime, all went well.

lucy stats are...
weight: 20lbs. 15oz. 50%
height: 29.75 in. 75%
head: 18.5 in. 90%

this little girl is definitely growing.

we discussed the fact that she is not liking milk at all. no problem though, because she is such a great eater, dr. surka says she will actually be fine without milk but she will probably learn to like it.

the majority of our convo was discussing the fact that lucy does not stand up, pull up, or is anywhere near walking. probably no big deal but he was a little concerned (as am I) that she doesn't want to put weight on her feet sometimes.

he examined the folds on her legs and did notice that she has an additional fold on the back of her right leg that she doesn't have on the back of her left leg. that discovery plus the observations that I have made about not pulling up led him to believe that lucy needs an ultrasound of her hips. just to be on the safe side.

hopefully, nothing is abnormal, but I will feel better knowing. Since lucy is a girl, born c-section because she was breech, it makes sense. I mean look at the picture of her birth...they had to pull her out by her legs...wouldn't be surprised if something gotta a little loose in there!

I will definitely post about the outcome of our ultrasound. for now...happy scootin luce!
