15 months!
Today William turned 15 mo, so off to the Pediatrician we went! He is now 28lbs and change.....(he's nearing the 29 mark but 28 sounds better :) ) He is 33 inches tall and continues with his big head at 20 1/2. He is DOWN to the 90% for weight and 95% and above for height and his head circumference. Our boy is slimming down! YEAH! He got 2 more shots and was not impressed with them at all! We went to change his diaper and layed him back down on that table-which sent him into another screaming fit! Poor thing was a bit traumatized-nothing some food couldn't help! He forgot about it in about 10 minutes and all was well again. I love how little ones forgot things so well! William is snotty nose AGAIN, so we are thinking he has chronic sinusitis. His Pedi wants to look into a little more and see if we can figure it all out. We will be doing sinus and adenoid x-rays in the next couple of days. They don't do appointments for x-rays so I have to walk in with my 15mo and hope they take him right in or else we have to wait for how ever long! Lets hope its a speedy process. Once we get results of the x-rays- it might mean 2 weeks of heavy antibiotics or an ENT consult and possible surgery! I'm not really happy about the idea of surgery, but our poor boy always has boogers in his nose and is congested. (He's not even in day care! Geeshhh how bad would that be! :) ) I'm ready and I know William is ready to be healthy! Otherwise all is well, we are going to work on eating more "people" food and speaking more words.

Aimee - about William's nose. We've just been through 6+ months of this. Ear infections, sinus problems, chronic runny nose... all of it. Zane had tubes put in his ears and his adenoids removed and less than 1 month later had ANOTHER infection.
Turns out he's allergic to milk. That's not lactose intolerant - it's different. It's like night and day - we the bulk of dairy out of his diet and the runny nose is gone. Our ENT said it's not all that common - so I wanted to let you know. Try cutting back on the dairy if you can for a week or so and see what happens. We saw results in just 2-3 days.
