One month appointment and first bath in a tub!

Today Gabi had her one month appointment with her pediatrician. She now weighs 7lbs 11oz and is 20 1/2in long. Hurray! She is growing so big! :) We also got a referral to a dermatologist for her Hemangioma on her face. It showed up when she was a week old but at the time we thought it was just a scratch. Her ped. informed us that it looked like a Strawberry Hemangioma and we should keep an eye on just in case it got bigger. Well, in the past few days it got darker and a bit raised, so off to the dermatologist we go. We have an appointment this Thursday 7/12...we will keep you updated.

Also, since she has one on her face and a larger one on her wrist our ped. has also suggested that we see a Pulmonologist, because there can be internal hemangiomas and she may have one in her throat. This may be the cause of her "noisy breathing." (It may also be Laryngomalacia which is a common thing in infants and is something that they "grow out of.") The appointment with the Pulmonologist will be on 7/18. Wish us luck and pray that she doesn't have any internal hemangiomas :)

On to happier news...Gabi had her first non-sponge bath today! She seemed to like it at first, but then got really ticked off (as the pics below will show)!

All pretty and clean!
