Summer having a snooze on mummy
Summer loving her new bouncy chair
Chilled out on her bean bag!
We had Summers latest appointment at the Southampton General Hospital - Children's outpatients on Tuesday 26th August.
They were pleasantly surprised by her weight gain and after weighing her themselves announced she has put on another two ounces since Friday so now weighs 7lb 2oz.
Summers surgeon who will eventually operate on her tummy was called in to have a look at her exomphalos. His jaw visibly dropped when he saw how much it has reduced in size - he hadn't expected that at all. The skin is growing really well up the sides of her tummy and will hopefully fully cover the exomphalos in a couple of months.
Due to Summers great weight gain and fantastic skin growth over her exomphalos, Southampton said they do not need to see us for another five weeks!!!

hello rudd family
this is gill, anna swan's mum, also an exomphalos baby (sat on my lap chewing my hand just now - hence one handed typing). your little Summer looks sooooo lovely and its great to hear that you've been able to get home and get on with being the three of you. and marvellous that Summer's exomph is getting smaller at such a rate of knots that your consultant's eye's came out on sticks. good luck!!
