First Pediatrician Appointment

I took Ryan to see our pediatrician today for the first time. The primary neonatologist at the hospital where Ryan was delivered had been very good about keeping our pediatrician updated on Ryan's condition which was great. They had spoken 3 or 4 times during Ryan's NICU stay, so our pediatrician was already informed of all of the respiratory complications that we had encountered. Our pediatrician was pleased with how Ryan's lungs sounded, and we weighed him to get a baseline on their office's scale (6lbs 11oz). I am going to bring him back for his official "2 week" appointment next Tuesday, and we'll see then whether or not Ryan has been gaining weight.
