Doctor's Notes

Thought that we should document some of Cole's strange medical encounters in the first 6 months of his life. Thankfully, everything has been minor and ended with speedy recoveries.
(I'm thinking this will be a good reference when baby #2 comes along some day.)

Friday, November 20th: Thrush. Painted his mouth with a violet, stain and a prescription for a mouth wash. Swish the mouth wash around 4 times a day. Challenging on a 6 month old.

Friday, November 13th: Today Cole had to have out-patient surgery. A revision on his circumcision. Poor guy! The procedure went very well. He did great. Coming out of anesthesia was a little rough as the doctor said he was very angry and confused. After a little morphine to help pacify him, he was very comfortable and peaceful. Below you will see the tiny little hospital gown, and miniature blood pressure cuff.

October 2009- Diagnosed with H1N1, bronchitis and an ear infection.

June 2009: Diagnosed with Colic. (Not sure if that's really what it was, but needed something to call it!)

June 2009: Milk, Soy, Protein intolerant. (Horray for Aliementum!)

May 2009: Possibly exposed to Hepatitis A. ER trip to Children's and a big needle in the thigh.

May 2009: Jaundice- A visit from the nurses at Children's home health care every morning for a prick in the heel and living in a mini-tanning bed.
