Checkup

Sam went for a checkup today. He weighs 16lb 10oz (in the top 10% for his age), height/length of 26.75″ (top 3%). He has been prescribed some lotions because he has eczema on his head and back, and some fluid in his ear, but nothing to worry about. It’s clearly not bothering him much, he’s a very jolly chap most of the time.

The doctor recommended dosing both of the kids up with Benadryl (cough medicine) for the flight over to help them sleep. But he suggested trying it first, as it can make some kids hyper.
