We've just returned from the neurologist and his cysts have almost totally disappeared! The doctor was very happy with the findings. He says he is doing spectacularly for a 1 month, 3 week year old (adjusted age) baby. Looking at the charts, he's in the 95% for that age. For almost 4 months old, however, he is a bit small. Dr. Guillen weighed Maximo too - he's 5420 grams (11 lbs. 15 oz.). I'm not sure how different this is from the scale at the other doctor's office, but it's a bit less gain than normal for almost a month. It could be because he's spending more energy with his therapy and daily workouts!
On the sleeping front... He hasn't done another 5 hour stretch, but seems to be sleeping between 3 and 4 hours now between feedings, rather than starting to eat every 2-3 hours. So, it's better. We're a little anxious about tonight because he slept a lot today because we were running errands most of the day. At least tomorrow's John's last day of school before summer break!
