Check up with Dr. Georgeson

Today we went to see Dr. Georgeson for her monthly check up (Dr. Georgeson is the surgeon that performed her TEF surgery). He said that everything looked great and he couldn't be happier with the way things were going. That was great news. Sometimes JB sounds really congested especially after a bottle so I fed her right before we saw the doctor hoping he would be able to hear her. Thankfully he heard her and said that was typical of TEF babies and that her esophagus wall where the repair was made was very thin and that's why she sounds that way. He also said that her cough would sound like a barking seal and he was spot on--that's exactly what it sounds like:) Sometimes when we are out in public and she coughs, people turn to look b/c it does sound like a seal. It is so cute. She will make funny sounds until around the age of 2 according to the doc. JB had a chest X-Ray today also. They will call with the results. Hopefully all is well... My sweet baby girl weighed in today at 11 lbs!!! She is growing so fast! Posted pictures on my Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=1821083&l=75944c62c2&id=816919132
