6-month Check-up

Brenna had her 6-month check-up yesterday and she did great! She received two shots and didn’t cry at all on the first, made one little whine at the second and then stopped right away! She weighed in at 18 lbs. 2 oz., putting her in the 90th percentile and is 27 ¾ inches long, putting her in the 98th percentile. It seems that she’s starting to plane off on her rapid weight gain, and is still a very long baby! Developmentally she is right on track and even a little ahead. She’s doing great on solid foods and going forward we get to start introducing meats mixed with vegetables as her pediatrician said that the straight meats were akin to cat food – yuck! No teeth to report yet, and her big skill we are working on at the moment is sitting up on her own.

Even though she has a cold now, her ears looked perfect, all healed up from the surgery and we are hoping to be able to get a good, healthy summer for her! Next check-up will be at nine months, and hopefully that will be the next trip to the doctor too!
