Alyssa had her 2 month well-visit yesterday while Addy was there for a sick-visit. It was scheduled for Wednesday, but since Addy was sick we had to go see the dr. Sickness doesn't follow a schedule! Alyssa weighs 12lbs & is 21 1/2 inches long! (When Addy was 2 months old she weighed 11.7lbs & was 22 inches long). She's doing great & growing like a weed! This visit she only got 2 shots & the Rotovirus oral. It was so sad! I don't remember Addy being so upset with her shots, but I'm sure she was. As soon as it was over I nursed her thinking that would calm her while we waited on Addy's strep test results. She was still so upset for about 5 minutes then fell fast asleep. I suspected Alyssa has a little cradle crap (cap) & asked the dr about it. She confirmed that's what it is & to use baby oil daily (rub it in, brush, rinse) & Selsum Blue shampoo weekly. Normally I listen to the dr, because, well, you know I'm NOT a dr. But, I think I'll wait before putting a medicated shampoo on her noggin & just see how the baby oil works for a week or so.
Addy is doing fine this morning. She's probably going to watch way too much Dora today & eat way too many sweets (ice cream, yogurt, popsicles)!
Now it's time to go disinfect toys, knobs & anything else I can spray with Lysol or wipe with a Clorox wipe!
