Mother Knows Best

There is truly a special gift that God has given to mothers. It's a unique understanding of your children. A month ago I wrote about the really odd report from the doctor that Collin's head was greater than the 99% and that it had to be monitored to make sure there wasn't brain swelling. If you recall I went home and even called back asking them to double check because it just didn't seem accurate to me, but the nurse confirmed that yes it was greater than 99%. So being the rule follower I am I went back this week for our follow up. The doctor walks in, takes one look at the chart and starts apologizing. The nurse had entered the date wrong in the computer system. She had put the current date as both his DOB and the date which made it seem like he was just born with a two month old head. He felt so bad and apologized over and over. He returned our copay too. No harm done. So his head is right as it should be about 60% and my little Jack remains the title holder of the largest head. Collin is doing so well. He is super sweet and easy. He still wakes up a lot at night to eat (sometimes every 1 1 /2 hours) so this week we started a tiny bit of rice cereal for dinner. He really likes it and figured out the swallowing thing quickly. I don't think it's made any difference with the sleeping, but I'm glad he enjoys it.
