Next Time, We Go to WakeMed


Two days ago we went to see a pediatric cardiologist in the WakeMed Heart Center and both the EKG and the cardiac echo test results were fine. There were no problems with the origins of Caleb's left coronary artery and the only thing that the scan showed was a small pinprick in his upper two chambers of the heart which babies are normally born with a small opening which usually closes in the first couple months of life. Caleb still has a small pinprick so we're right on track.

The cardiologist said that we don't need to see him or anybody else for a follow up on Caleb's heart and everything is fine. So the next time we visit the pediatrician will be for Caleb's 9 month appointment.

Caleb IS a good baby. At REX they had nurses holding him down to do the test, at WakeMed it was so much better. They darkened the room and put on these baby Einstein videos and he was just mesmerized and they did all the tests in 15 min!
