Today Mylah went to visit Dr. Ciccolo for Post-Op follow up. His partner Dr. Weinseck did her surgery, but he will do her full heart repair, so we met with him for this check up.
It's always nice to see him, he is friendly and we like him. He said that Mylah's incision looks great and that he is pleased with how well she is recovering from her surgery. He answered all of my questions and then set a date to see her back in 4 weeks.

Today Mylah saw a Pediatric Urologist - Dr. Hwang. We really like him. We have known him for five years because he is our oldest child's Urologist. Dallin had Hydronephrosis of his kidneys when he was born. Two surgeries later he is doing really well and we are grateful to Dr. Hwang and his team for being so wonderful. We have always been really impressed with him. We are now visiting him because Mylah was diagnosed with Grade 2 Hydronephrosis. She will have another Renal Ultrasound and a VCUG (dye scan) done next week and we will go back to see him and see if it has worsened or not. We are praying all will be well.

Today Mylah had a check up with the Pediatrician. I am getting used to doing this - going to the doctor three times a week - thing. She weighs 9lbs. and is 21 inches long. When the nurse weighed her I had her check again because I didn't believe her...9lbs? Wasn't she just 7lbs and tiny a week and a half ago? She has gained 22 ounces in 10 days! I asked Dr. Tenby about that, and he said he isn't concerned. It is a big/fast weight gain, but as long as it isn't fluid build up, which he couldn't see, so there is really no concern. He will just watch her and make sure she doesn't gain too much weight too fast. Overall she is looking really good and he is pleased with her progress. She will go in next week for her second Hep. B shot.
After a week of appointments, I just feel so blessed. Mylah has been progressing remarkably well and everyone is impressed with her. She amazes us daily and we are so blessed to have her special spirit in our home.
