9 Month Stats and Such

Remy's appointment on Friday went well.  He's growing strong and is as healthy as a horse!  He now weighs 20.11 lbs (70%) and is 30 in tall (99%).  I still don't know where the height thing comes from but maybe that will simmer down as he gets older.  The doc was concerned that his clogged eye duct hasn't gone away on its own yet.  We've tried all we can think of to make it go away on its own - rubbing the spot between his eye and nose, putting ointment in his eye and trying breastmilk.  Nothing has worked thus far so she referred him to an eye place to have it "unclogged".  Apparenlty it's actually called dacryostenosis.  Anyways, that's getting taken care of next week.  Hopefully he's in and out and it doesn't cause too much pain.  I can't handle watching him in pain.  It breaks my heart.  Speaking of pain, after his shot on Friday he got a fever.  It started Saturday night and is still really bad tonight - 24 hours later.  He's never had a reaction like this to any shots before but I'm assuming that's the cause.  Poor little guy has had a temp of 101 all day and this evening it went up to 103.6.  That scared me so I called and spoke to a nurse.  After we gave him some more Tylenol his fever went back down to 102 and he seems ok.  The nurse said to bring him in tomorrow unless his temp goes to 105 or he seems much worse.  Gosh I hate seeing him sick.  :(
