Six Month Check-up

Dougie went to the doctor today for his 6 month visit. He did well and HE IS HUGE!!

Stats:

  • Weight - 15lbs 10oz (25%)
  • Height - 27 3/4" (90%)
  • Head - 17 1/4" (50%)

He got his DTaP and Heb B shots. He didn't love that part but otherwise the visit went really well. He is a bit ahead of target on his physical development and right around target for his vocal development. The doctor said that we could start him on more mature foods when he turns 8 months. That was a bit of a disappointment because I was hoping we could start that a bit sooner. He also said he sees no signs of teeth. Several people have told me that the longer teeth stay under the gum the healthier they are so I'm not anxious at all about that.

All in all, it looks like we're doing things right. So, we're very happy about that. Now if we can just get him to sleep.
