Today was a first for me. Jacob had a head specialist appointment today at 1pm downtown. We were supposed to show up at 12:30 so I left work at 11:30 to pick up Jacob and Andrew. As you know, from my last post, I have been having a hard time producing enough milk so it is very important that I pump on schedule as much as possible. I usually pump during the work day at 9, 12, and 3. Picking up Jacob and Andrew at 11:45 and traveling downtown was cutting into my pumping time so what does any working mom do you ask?!?! She pumps in the car on the way downtown of course. YES people, I had to pump in the car as people flew by and we flew downtown to the appointment. Never ever in my life did I think I would be milking myself in a car. Andrew looked over a few times and never said a word because, honestly, I don't think he knew what to say. After all was said and done....3 oz! I really don't think I'll be doing a pumping on the run session again for all of 3 oz.
Jacob's appointment today went very well. He has a mild tightness of his right neck muscle that we are going to get some physical therapy for. He also has a slight case of asymmetry of his head but the doctor thinks with a little more time on his tummy and upright in a bumbo seat he should be back to normal in about 3 months. We will go back in 3 months to visit the doctor and physical therapist for them to evaluate his progress. I felt great after the appointment and much better about Jacob's head.
By the way...for those of you betting on his weight, today he weighed 17lbs. 6 oz.
