Our Visit To The Doctor

My little one had her 5 year check up last Friday. The visit went well. I think her favorite part of the visit is sitting up on that huge exam table and dragging all her toys up there. Yes, I bring a few toys on the trip just to keep her busy. She had her last vaccine until she is 11, which a big relief. Her eyes are still doing good since her surgery in June and she's growing at a normal rate. The only thing that was a concern was the sound of her heart murmur. She was born with a harmless murmur, which many children have at birth. The doctor mentioned it sounded a little louder than normal. So the pediatrician has referred us to a pediatric cardiologist just to check it out. It's better to be safe than sorry. Of course I couldn't get in right away with the cardiologist. Our appointment isn't until the beginning of November. Just enough time for me to think myself to death and worry. I wish the appointment was sooner, but that's what you get when you want to see a specialist. I hope she gets a good report from this cardiologist. Wish us luck.
