39 Weeks In, 39 Weeks Out

Cameron Leigh is 39 Weeks Old!

We had our 9 month well check up today...except it turned into a sick visit as well.  Cami has had a runny nose and slight cough for the past week and a half.  No big deal...just a small cold...I chalked it up to a new daycare and new germs.  This past weekend she got incredibly fussy.  She would start crying for no reason and the usual bottle, hug or nap didn't help. Cami's eyes were a bit red/swollen underneath and she had a tiny bit of 'sleep' in the corners of her eyes after sleeping.  Again...seemed normal of the cold she had, possibly even allergies.  

Well, less than two hours after I dropped her off at daycare this morning I got a call saying she had a lot of discharge coming from her eyes and they believed she had conjunctivitis aka 'pink eye.'  They let her stay since I already had a Dr.'s appointment scheduled this afternoon.  When I picked her up, it was obvious she had pink eye.  

We went to the Dr.'s office and Cami was acting her normal happy self.  Dr. Silverman came in for her exam and in addition to the pink eye, we discovered she had a double ear infection.  My poor baby. :(  This explains the waking and crying at night.  While we were waiting for the nurse to return, Cami was inconsolable.  Nothing I tried could help her crying.  I'm not used to an upset baby!  The nurse gave her two shots - more crying.  Next we went to the lab for a finger prick blood test.  By this time Cami stopped crying and barely blinked at the finger prick.  I guess her ears, eyes and leg from the shots hurt more she hardly noticed!

Besides the eye and ear infections, Cami was a healthy girl.  I'll save her stats for tomorrow's 9 month post.

We had a big development this week!  Cami can now 'army crawl' to get around.  She uses her forearms and pulls her little body across the floor.  It's really cute to watch.  She also gets up on all fours and rocks back and forth. I have a feeling crawling is right around the corner!

Cami started interacting a lot with Kaylee this week.  She 'crawled' over to where Kaylee was laying and started pulling on her hair.  Kaylee didn't budge.  Another time Cami was playing with Kaylee's collar...she was fascinated by the dog tag.  Kaylee tolerated well it with a few licks.
