Alexander's pediatrician was all for the bloodwork, so I ran down there yesterday to grab the script and we were at the lab at 7AM this morning. Unfortunately for Alex, he wasn't seen until 8:15 - that's a loooong wait for such a little, active guy. He was extremely patient and we all survived the actual blood draw. He checked some different baselines and ran the Celiac test. We hope to hear the results by the end of the week. His doctor also said that if we start being concerned that there might be internal bleeding (consistently excessive pain or disturbing diapers) to just run a diaper down and they'll screen it for blood.
So we'll see if anything shows up in his bloodwork, and just continue our watchful waiting.
