Aydri Update

At Aydri's 8 week appointment she weighed 10 pounds. That puts her in the 35th percentile. She is 22 1/2 inches long in the 50th percentile. As we were leaving the doctors office, Jared was holding Aydri and the doctor looked at her and then asked me if she turns her head. I said, "Yes, but only one way." I knew what he was going to say next and I feel bad that I didn't think to bring this up with the doctor sooner. The doctor said that Aydri has a flat spot on one side and a tight muscle in her neck. He told me to give her more "tummy time" for her head and told us we had to take her to physical therapy for her neck. We will meet with a pediatric physical therapist in St. George on the 29th to be evaluated and to learn how to take care of this problem.
