Josie's appointment with the neurologist, today, went great! The results of the urinalysis were completely normal- so the concern of the metabolic disorder is no longer there. The doctor did not know why the first test came back abnormal but she did say it was possible that her "Next Step" soy formula could have caused it. We did stop the formula before her last test (and have not given it to her since) so maybe that was all that it was.
Josie's head did grow another 1/2 inch in the last four months but she stayed on the same percentile curve so the doctor said that was good. It is the very rapid growths and spikes on the curve that concern her.
As far as Josie's development, the doctor said she looks great. Ellie was reading some books the doctor had in her office and Josie surprised us by going up to one and pointing to a page and naming the letters O, P, and M and the number 6. The doctor joked that not only did she seem fine developmentally, but that she was a genius. :)
The best thing that the doctor told me was that she doesn't want to see us again. Unless Josie were to start showing anything concerning again, then we are done with the neurologist, done with the tests, and DONE with the worry.
Thank God for our healthy amazing little Josie!
