Dr Appointment

Jaidan had his heart dr. appt yesterday in Denton. He is going to the same cardiologist that Jared grew up going to. At 11 days old Jaidan weighed 8lbs 6oz and is 20 3/4in long. He also had his first EKG and ECG. Most of you know that Jared has a heart condition called long QT. It’s a heart arrhythmia that runs in his family and is the reason he has a pacemaker to regulate it. It technically wouldn’t effect Jaidan until he is much older, if he has it at all, but the doctor wants to monitor it anyway. He basically has a 50/50 shot of having it or not. His QT measurement was a little high but babies fluctuate so much there is no way to tell for sure. He goes back again in 3 months and they will run the same tests again and also test for the specific strand that runs in his family. So… we pray. 🙂
