Ben has discovered his hands in both sight and taste. He is just now starting to reach out for faces and toys in front of him, and is right on track for head strength. All of these developmental marks were tested at the pediatrician's office this past Wednesday. He was referred to one because last week the family physician detected a faint heart murmur during his regular 2 month checkup. The pediatrician heard it too, but based on that and absent symptoms, he didn't think it was the kind of murmur that is problematic. Just to be sure, yesterday's adventure was to try an EKG (the painless test where they stick electrodes all over you and you have to lie still - yah, right!) The technician wasn't sure we got an interpretable reading....in fact, Ben's high levles of activity lately are a sign that blood is pumping through his system just fine.
What is that funny-looking thing? And, subsequently, why does it taste so good? (May 8th)
