Mallory went back to the Dr today for a 5 month check up. I know, you normally don't have a check up at the 5th month, that is unless you are Mallory and you have a big brain!! She had to go in to have her head measured. Dr Jill wanted to make sure that it was leveling off with the curve and not continuing to grow at a faster rate of speed. And I can say PRAISE THE LORD as her head only grew a cm in the past month, and not 2 cm, which would have put her on the upward slide instead of leveling off. Ok, easier to look at the graph then it is to explain it. What I'm basically saying is there is no need to worry that there might be fluid there, and that she is just gonna have a big head, um I mean big brain!!! The Dr seemed happy with the results and said there was nothing to worry about (we had a CT scan back in January and that was clear, so we knew there was no tumor growth, but the fluid is a little harder to detect on those scans) So we will go back in a month for her 6th month checkup which will be the whole gamete of shots and such. Not looking forward to that as she is usually crabby for a couple days afterwards even with the tylenol.
Thought I'd leave you with a picture of Mason at his finest over Thanksgiving 2007.
