It was a hard winter. Lots of sickness going around. January Kade got RSV and had to be suctioned at the hospital a few times. We just went into our scheduled 6 month check up, and our pediatrician didn't like the way Kade was breathing, and she almost admitted him then. We had a few really rocky days getting him better.
February 20, 2014 Kade had a scheduled surgery as well. When he was born we learned he had hypospadias. It's where his penis didn't seal all the way up inside me. So he never peed out the top, which was nice in the fact that I never got peed on while changing his diaper. Once he was 6 months old they could fix it. They prefer him to be that old because it requires 90 minutes under general anesthesia. A pediatric urologist from Primary Children's Hospital comes down every other month just to do these procedures. I guess 1 in 200 are born with it. So Dr Brent Snow came down and did an amazing job on our Kade. I hated the fact that he had to be put under for 90 minutes, but just had to trust everything would be okay. When the anesthesiologist came to get Kade, we realized it was the same Doctor who did my epidural with Crew, and it didn't work and I ended up being put under general anesthesia for my c-section. So I got really nervous for a few minutes, but then realized it had been over two years. Maybe it was just my body that reacted weird, and not even him. Needless to say Kade did great. Both Doctors did great. Now we have a happy new little man with a penis that now pees on me while I change his diaper or in the bathtub at night.
