Don't Mess With Me

Chapter 115

"How is our sweet little Willow doing?" the doctor asks as she looks in Willows ears "She is doing good she only wakes once during the night for a quick feeding and a diaper change, napping about 3-4 times a day lasting 2-4 hours each time, longer if she only has three. Eating good getting a fat belly after every feeding." The doctor moving around Willow on Maddie lap doing her routine check, "Great, last time she was here she was trying to hold her head up during tummy time how is that going?" picking up Willow laying her on her tummy to check for diaper rash.

"Oh good she holds her head up all the time and she loves rolling over into belly crawling" the doctor pausing bringing her eyes up to Maddie and Bucky "She is belly crawling?" pinching her eyebrows her voice laced in curiosity "Uh ya, she started early last week" Bucky answers "Are you sure she is belly crawling?" looking down at Willow rolling over to her back to look at the doctor and them. "I mean if you flip her back over she will probably do it" Bucky replies as he walks to the other side of the table as Willow eyes lock on him watching him. 

Standing at the end table seeing Willow push herself over to her belly then locking her eyes with Bucky as he smiles at her holding his hands out as she pushes herself to belly crawl humming with each thud of her arms on the table getting closer to Bucky till finally in his arms. "Huh...how long has she been sleeping through the night or waking up once during the night?" Maddie quickly turning around pulling out a small notebook from her purse. 

"Uh her first time she slept with only one feeding was when she was 7 weeks, then she slept through the night twice at 8 weeks without a feeding the other times were all with a feeding, and then last week was the same" closing the notebook. "How many ounces of formula is she having?"

"No formula all natural" slipping her notebook back in her purse. "Does she take a bottle?"

"Yes, she takes a bottle mostly during the day so that him and her have time together and then I usually get the morning evening and the night feedings but we have a bottle ready if she doesn't take my breast"

"How many ounces is she getting per eating?" now looking at Willow as she grips Bucky beard that he has been growing out a little "6-8 ounces, mostly 6. Before her night one she usually takes an 8 and then whatever amount she gets from Maddie" he answers as he kisses her hands that are now in his mouth. 

"Is she getting anything else?" the doctor asks walking over to her computer "Uh no just breast milk...should we be given her something else?" Maddie now concerned "No medicines, no um juice?"

"No...just breast milk I don't think she is old enough to be having juice, that feels like a lot of sugar" Maddie answers now twiddling with her fingers looking over at Bucky seeing him also getting a little nervous "Juice as in gym candy...roids...steroids?"

"No" they both say at the same time, stunned that the doctor would say that "Let me look at her please" standing up from her chair putting her hands out as Bucky hands her over watching her lay Willow back down on the table. 

Looking at the pit of her armpit behind her knees and in between her toes "Is something wrong?" Bucky questions seeing Maddie trying to speak but unable to. "I am a little concerned about what you are telling me. Sleeping through the night with one or less feedings. Head control and support. Roll overs. Belly crawling. The 6-8 ounces is all concerning."

"Why?" Maddie voice finally working "Well sleeping through the night typically doesn't happen till closer to 6 months not 2 and half. Head control and support happens usually at 3 months but even at that time is minimal unlike what she is showing me right now. Roll overs also start around 6 months. Belly crawling happens as early 5 but closer to 6 to 8 months and then the 6-8 ounces is again around 6 months. So I am just concerned on her doing all this and she is only 2 and half months not 5 to 6 months"
