Baby Well Check

Hmmm...I wonder what I am supposed to do with this?


Eat it? ...nope.

Ah ha! Read it!


Abram had his 4 month well check today. He is doing well! He weighed in at 13lb 3oz which is about the 25% so he is still a little peanut but is healthy and happy. He is now 25.5 inches tall which is 75%.

When you bring your child in for the well baby check they have you fill out a form that says "tell me about your child" with a block of space for free writing. I excitedly filled in all of Abram's feats knowing that he would be the most brilliant of 4 month olds the doctor has seen. I then flipped the paper over to check off the milestones they have preprinted for the months. Yep, everything I had written on the front was covered in the three and four month milestones on the back. So, he is right on track and I am like every mom in the world who thinks no one could be as advanced as her child. To be fair he did have 2 of the 5 month milestones down as well.

I have decided that I really like our doctor. She is very supportive and gives us the information we need. She is on board with our delayed vaccination schedule and told me about how she also cloth diapered her children back in the 80's.
