Had our 2 month checkup today. Amelia has gained weight nicely, and has grown. Still has a tiny head, but her development is on track. Results are finally in on the MCADD - nope. But, they still don't want us to let her go more than 6 hrs without eating. The geneticists think that perhaps Mia may not be able to process proteins for energy. More tests happening tomorrow, but those results should only take 10 days. We'll see.
OK, here's Mia, by the numbers at 2 months:
Height: 22 1/4 inches (50th percentile)
Weight: 9 lbs, 15 oz (25th percentile)
Head Circumference: 14 inches (less than 5th percentile)
The GP said (again) that they need to keep an eye on her small head. So long as she's hitting her developmental milestones they won't worry. Small heads can mean developmental issues, but it may just be that she has a small head. I'm starting to dislike doctors in general.
