2 Month Checkup Update

The boys had their two month check up last Friday. These first two months have flown by & what changes we’ve already seen in the boys.
The doctor said they both looked great. Wyatt has an umbilical hernia, which is an outward bulging (protrusion) of the abdominal lining or part of the abdominal organ(s) through the area around the belly button. It is very common in infants and is nothing to be worried about at this point. Here are their updated measurements:

Wyatt – weighs 8 lbs. 6 oz. & is 20.47 inches long
Colton – weighs 8 lbs. 4 oz. & is 20.28 inches long

They also had their first vaccination shots, since leaving the hospital, at this appointment. Because they needed more than one shot – two nurses were in the room so they could give the shots at the same time – less traumatic for little ones since it’s over with in one swoop. Both of the boys did very well. They both cried at first but settled down quickly so because of that it was fairly easy on their mommy too!! The shots made the boys pretty sleepy for the rest of the day on Friday and on Saturday too.
