Lumps and Bumps

Monday evening, after being gone Friday-Sunday to Missouri, we noticed a fairly large (golf ball size) lump on Babbs' right side. This seemed strange since there was no outside wound...lump.

Jude has had a boil on his bottom for quite some time now. It just won't go away, but at the same time doesn't seem to cause too much pain or discomfort...bump.

Tuesday we took Jude to the doctor for his regular 15 month well-baby check. Everything was good. He is now in the 50th percentile for height and 75th percentile for weight...hmmm they flipped. Oh and off the charts for head of course! But the doctor did prescribe an antibiotic to finally get rid of the bump.

Wednesday I took Babbs (and Jude!) to the vet. They took some fluid out of the lump to try to determine what it might be. That evening I called back and found out they don't really know! They think the lump was caused by trauma (a hemotoma). I informed them that she was acting lethargic again. Today I picked up an antibiotic for her.

One bump, one lump. Two babies on antibiotics. Hope they get well soon:)
