Kennedy had her 3 year well visit today with our new ped. Yes, a bit early but I wanted it before school so we could get all of her record, etc. Her new Ped. did all of his homework. He had a Down syndrome growth chart, asked all the right questions, etc. I was sooooo pleased with our visit!
Onto the brag, Kennedy is way off the Down syndrome charts and is right on target on the regular charts. She weighs 31 pounds and is 37 inches tall. He said she is doing AMAZING! He said he completely understood why she was not diagnosed at birth, as she only has a few traits. I LOVE this man!

That is awesome! Doesn't it just make things so much easier/nicer when you get someone who actually cares in the medical field?!

You go Kennedy! Blow them away 'cause you blow me away with your strength, beauty, and overall sweetness.

I'm SOOOOOOO jealous! I want to find a new pedi so bad, but am so lazy. Maybe when some of these other doctors appt start dying down I'll get to it.

Keep the great growing going, Miss Kennedy!! Smile

That is great!
And finding a ped you like is a big brag too. I feel the same way about ours. She is the most with it doctor I have ever encountered - she even called the other day to initiate the process of getting synagis going. It's enough to make me never want to move from this town!

I am so glad for you. We will get a new Ped next visit too. We already have met her and really liked her a lot. I was nervous about it so we went to see a few just for a visit.
