9 Month WELL Baby Appointment

Andrew went to the doctor today and left WITHOUT any medications and any diagnosis! 

He's been waking up screaming in the middle of the night and pulling at his ear, so I wanted to rule out ear infection before I just blamed teething or separation anxiety.  Thankfully, it is one of those two things and nothing is wrong with his ears.  Dr. Ghebrial confirmed that his four top teeth are working their way out.  We went over everything that he should be doing (and like always I was told that he is physically advanced) and which new foods he should be trying out.  Because we delayed some of his six month shots, he also got two vaccines today.
 
We also celebrated 22 days of total wellness!
