Asher and I were in the Medical Center for about 5 hours today. Nothing bad, just getting his first round of shots and shortly after I began my first 'Pre-Employment' day at the Hospital. Scheduling these two things around the same time proved to be successful...once the day was finished I could say that of course.Asher continues to grow very well according to Dr. Alley. Its always reassuring to hear this since he is still on 100% breastmilk. I am providing enough for my little guy!
Head: 60th %-tile 16 inches
Weight: 60th %-tile 12 lbs 2 oz.
Lenght: 90th %-tile 24 inches!! Mr. String Bean!
Doug and I still need to confirm where we'll be sending Asher while I start my orientation on Friday, July 10th. Fortunately I put him on plenty of waiting lists when I started my 3rd trimester. Many of those facilities have spots for him, so now Doug and I need to make a firm decision. It's estimated I won't be working 'on my own' till December! So in the meantime I work side-by-side with my preceptor on my unit and attend classes till I'm deemed fit to work in the Children's Special Care Unit.
p.s. If you're wondering why the Cookie Cake has Doug's name on it...well Asher decided to share his birthday cookie with his dad. Cookie Cake is Doug's favorite, and he wanted to make sure his dad fully got to celebrate his big day.
