Zelda went for her nine month appointment yesterday, where they took blood from her finger (not a peep from her) and collected urine (in the crazy bag that tapes to her bits). She has a high white blood cell count and they found puss and traces of blood in her urine. They don't think the two things are related, but Zelda and I had to go back to the doctors after her nap to give more urine to send out for analysis. No clue about the white blood cells count being high, but they think she may have a bladder infection. All of it being even more weird that there was no symptoms. No fever, no acting cranky (well until last night) nothing! Then last night she woke up at least 10 times and even Jon got up to try and help. I called the doctor this morning and she thinks that maybe it is hurting her to pee. She has also been in a pretty foul mood this afternoon as well, yay for naps! The doctor gave us some medicine to treat as if it's a bladder infection. Because of the holiday on Monday we won't get the results until Tuesday and we didn't want to wait that long to treat.
She also didn't gain very much weight - for the 2nd month - and have been dropped down to the 10th percentile. Our doctor says we may need to supplement with formula because my supply may be decreasing. I'm super bummed if that's the reason. I am drinking a ton of water to see if I can get my supply up!
A week and a half ago when she started to pull herself up on things!
Playing with her walker - she's driving.
She thinks it's hilarious to sit up while I'm trying to put on her diaper.
Eating the changing table
Blocks - YUM!
So happy!
Outside our window. This mama duck has too many babies!
Aw, poor thing! She's too cute to be sick. Which, for no reason at all, remiss me of "she's too pure to be pink." Hope she's better soon!
