Introducing Sage Lynn...


Sage Lynn Siebenahler
Born 8.26.10 @ 8:07 am
7 lbs 11 oz 21 in

We are so happy she is finally here! We have been a bit busy, as you can see that I am finally posting and she is already 2 1/2 weeks old! We have had visits from both sets of grandparents, uncles, cousins, and friends the past two weekends. This weekend though, it is just the three of us!

Sage was very fussy after eating a few days last week, so we made a formula change and added gas drops which have both made a huge difference. She has ointment for her eyes because her tear ducts didn't open so she has a little infection.


The biggest issue is her poor right hip! Since she was breech her pediatrician ordered a hip ultrasound to make sure things developed properly. Her right hip is a tad loose so they are afraid it could start to go out of joint. The poor little thing has to wear a velcro brace for six weeks to keep her legs slightly elevated towards her hip. She doesn't like it, but she doesn't hate it either. I think it has been hardest on mom! The doc said that the brace has a 99% chance of fixing the problem so she can avoid future issues.
