Pedi Appointment Update

June's 2 Year Stats:
Height = 34.5in (70%)
Weight = 28lbs 2oz (65%)

She gained 4lbs & 2in in the last 6 months. Doctor said that this was a good gain on her curve. I believe she was 50% all around at her 18mo appointment.

June got 1 shot today. She was pretty upset whenever the doctor or nurse touched her for any purpose, but actually handled the shot at the very end of the appointment pretty well. I think the sucker contributed to her good behavior.

Roxy's 1 Year Stats:
Height = 31.5in (95%)
Weight = 21lbs (70%)

She gained 1lb & 1.5in in the last 3 months. Doctor said this slow down in weight gain is pretty typical for this age. He said she is long & lean! She has slowed significantly in weight & height gain. She was off of the charts since her 4mo well-baby check up. So at least she is back on the charts in the stat.

Roxy did pretty well for the check up & nurse vitals. She didn't really get upset until the ear check. She had her anemia & lead levels checked by a finger stick early in the appointment & it was pretty much downhill from there. She would not stop crying unless I held her. But I couldn't just hold her because both Lincoln & June needed my attention as well. So they all did a little crying while waiting for the doctor to come in & then again while waiting for the nurse to come back with the shots. Roxy, usually my sweetest, and least likely to cry baby, was an absolute wreck during & after her 4 shots. She refused to be consoled (even with suckers) until we had traveled a least 10 minutes away from the pedi's office. Poor baby.
