4 Month Check-up

Anthony's 4 month check-up went very well. He weighed in at 17 1/2 pounds and 26 inches long. That's 90th percentile for both height and weight.

About his development: Dr. Babcock was impressed by how well he can stand. She also liked how his social skills were developing--eye contact, smiling, giggling, talking....

She wasn't the slightest bit bothered that he doesn't roll yet. Frankly, he doesn't spend that much time on his tummy and that's the easiest direction to roll.

This month's talk was on starting solids. We'll wait until he's closer to 6 months old, though.

He also got his shots. He didn't like them very much. He woke up with a good fever the next morning, too, but Tylenol brought it down right away.

Our next appointment is a nurse appointment at 6 months.
