Well Baby Check Up




Luke and I just got back from Dr. Stephen's office. It was time for his 18 mo well baby check up. He got three shots. He screamed very loudly. But soon felt better when I pointed out his Snoopy bandaids. He's doing fine, no concerns. He has one bottom tooth yet to make an appearance and then all he'll have left are his 4 two year molars and we're DONE WITH TEETHING! This past week with teething has not been a good one for Luke and he has been hearing lots about being sold to the gypsies.
The nurse also took his measurements. His head circumference is in the 30th percentile. He is 31" tall, which puts him in the 20th percentile. And he weighs 20lbs and 0 oz. putting him in the bottom 1%. He's tiny, but at least he's still on the charts. We'll see if that holds true for his 2 year well baby check up. Until then, I guess he'll be going to his swimming lessons in his 6-12 mo. swim trunks.

  1. Luke is so cute!!! Sounds like a healthy boy, even if he's small. Charlie was below the chart for a long time. Last visit he was finally in the fifth percentile (joy!!). Hasn't sopped his big attitude one bit!

    Glad to know you blog too!
