All went rather well!

We saw Joseph's endicronologist on Tuesday, and she seemed generally pleased with all of his progress. She said that the bloodspots that we had carried out at the end of March had come back with good results, so she was pleased with his hydrocortizone dose, and assured me that we would stick with the dose that he was on. This appointment was the first time that he had not required his bloods to be taken. It was a rather nice change as it can be quite upsetting for all of us when we have to see him go through that. We have been instructed to do his next lot of bloodspots at the end of June and our next appointment to see her is at the end of August.

It really is starting to feel like things are settling down. Joseph has been pretty unlucky as far as hospital admissions go as he has been in quite a lot since he was born, however, I have spoken to a couple of parents who have said that thier CAH children has only been in once or twice. Unfortunately this is the downside I have found to sending him to nursery, he has been in a vulnerable position to catch lots of bugs, but although I have contemplated taking him out of nursery, I know that he really enjoys himself, and even those two days a week that he is there, I notice a lot of progress both mentally and physically.

We are off for his 13 month jabs today which I never look forward to, but then what Mum does? One good thing about today however, is that it will his last lots of jabs for a while (apart from the Swine Flu jab) so I am glad that will be over.

It's nice to know that things are hopefully getting back to the way it should (fingers crossed).
