A tough start to the week...

Madyson has now been in daycare for about 3 weeks. I still do not like dropping her off and having to say goodbye, but I am comforted by the people I leave her with because I know they do care about her and for her needs while I am at work. That said, when my phone rang yesterday and I saw that daycare was calling, I immediately think the worst. As soon as I pick up the phone the director tells me that Madyson is fine... Whew! Now I am wondering what paperwork I forgot to do or if I left enough food for the day. She then begins to tell me that something happened... Apparently one of the teachers was trying to catch one of the other children from face planting into a table and in the process "stepped on" Madyson (before you freak out like I did, she just grazed her and didn't step on her with her full weight). I guess her heal grazed Madyson's leg/knee enough that it left a small pink spot but really nothing big. I hang up the phone and leave work, because even though they say she seems fine, I want to be there and see for myself. I get there, chat with the director and then go into the infant room and see Madyson sleeping in the arms of the teacher who has obviously been crying and has not put Madyson down since the incident. I go over and look at Madyson's leg and sure enough it's just pink and she seems content sleeping, she has even had a bottle after the fact. I move her leg and no crying or cringing. (I think we're good, I am sure there will be more injuries throughout her life) The teacher apologizes to me and begins crying again. =( (I can tell she feels really bad about what happened). I was upset when I was first told about it, but I know things happen. Thankfully 1) she is okay (although we have a doctor's appointment tomorrow (today) and I will have her checked out) 2)the other child is okay. I am sure a head injury would have been much worse. 3) she didn't step on any other part of her (i.e. her head or stomach) and 4) babies are extremely resilent. The director ask if I will call them after our appoitnment to see how Madyson is doing. After getting home Madyson seemed fine. Her night was much the same as every other night and we are now on a trend of her sleeping about 5 hours straight after bed time and then 3 hours each subsequent time. I am not complaining and consider that sleeping through the night as she is only 2 months old. Plus, she soothes herself to sleep so I think we're doing ood thus far! This morning Madyson, Kevin and I went to the doctor's for her 2 month check-up. First, the nurse takes her measurements and weights her: She is in the 50 percentile of Height and Weight (PERFECT the doctor said; her words =) ) And she is apparently smart because her head is in the 75 percentile. =) She is also almost 11 lbs and measures in at 22 1/2 inches long! She's growing, YEA! The nurse then goes over the vaccines Madyson will be getting today after the Doc checks her out. The Doc comes in and looks Madyson over and says her leg is fine, it does have a small eraser sized bruise but that is about the extent of it. The Doc checks her ears, nose, mouth; everything looks good, so we ask the Doc some questions (she's great!) she leaves and the nurse comes back in and has Madyson's 2 month vaccines ready to go (Kevin is holding her while she gets her shots) Madyson at this point has her paci in her mouth and in completely content, nurse comes over, wipes the first leg and quickly gives her her first vaccine (delayed reaction, paci falls out of her mouth and screams and red face begin), the nurse quickly does the second vaccine and Madyson continues to wail... awwwee my poor baby. Nurse tells us to take our time and leaves the office. kevin stands up with madyson and begins bouncing her to calm her and surprisingly it helps, she stops screaming! Madyson is calming down. I take her and give her her paci and she is still a little upset but not crying. As we are leaving the building she is actually falling asleep (in Kevin's arms again). On the way home, I call the daycare director and let her know Madyson is fine... she is happy to hear it and apparently the teachers had been asking all morning so I am sure they will be happy too (I am pretty sure no one will be "stepping" on Madyson again! I also get a text from work that says don't come in (fine by me!) Two mnoths until hernext appointment and more vaccines; they didn't seem to be as bad as I thought they would be. She was a little fussy after we got home and I gave her some infant tylenol and she is now happily sleeping in her swing. I don't dare move her! Every now and then I hear a little wimper. *sigh* Is it August yet?
