Mason is quite the big kiddo....he is 13 lbs 5oz and 23.5 inches which makes him in the 90th percentile for weight and 75th percentile for height!!! That is a huge jump from the 50th percentile at birth (for weight). We are still in size 2 diapers....for now.
His pediatrician thinks he has torticollis (neck stiffness limiting his range of motion which may be causing a flat spot on his head), so we are starting stretching exercising and physical therapy to help correct that. He also has a plugged tear duct, which should also resolve on it's own.
He has developed a hydrocele (fluid in the scrotum) after his hernia repair, which the surgeon said is common. We will follow up in 4 months, if it has not resolved then we may need to have another repair! I'm not stressing about it right now as it should resolve on it's own, but I'm still keeping my fingers crossed.
I kills me how many little "medical" issues we are having with Mason, since Brandon was so healthy for the first 19 months of his life!
