9 month checkup

Today was my 9 month check up. My height was 29.5 inches and my weight was 21 lbs. I’m in 75 – 90% in height but 50% in weight. So I gained half inch and half pound in past 3 weeks. Not bad. My doctor said I’m going to have stature like my mom since she’s skinny and tall. I also got tested for anemia and I was fine. And got 1 shot that I didn’t get at my 6 month check up. I don’t have to come back for another 3 months.

I’m ok….

I’ve been throwing up quite a bit lately so my parents took me to see Dr. Wang today. The doctor said it’s infant reflux and I should be fine. They even checked my urine to see if I’m dehydrated but I’m not. And since my last checkup 2 1/2 months ago, I’ve gained 2 inches in height and 2 lbs in weight so the doctor isn’t too worried. He just told my parents to make sure to feed me at least 30 minutes in advance of me riding in the car, and feed me smaller meals more often. He also prescribed some medicine that will help with the stomach. He said my bottom two teeth are starting to grow and they should show up in probably next 2 weeks. I still have to come back in 2 weeks for my 9 month check up. As of today, I’m now 29 inches tall and 20.5 lbs. Not bad.

Today was my 6 month check up. I’m now 18.5 lbs. I got 3 shots today but I don’t have to come back for another 3 months. This is my pediatrician, Dr. Wang.

4 months check up

Today, I’m exactly 4 months old. And I had my check up today.

Now, I weigh 15.8lbs and am 26.5 inches tall. I used to be 50 percentile but now I’m starting to be more towards 75%. Not bad for a baby that was born at only 6lbs.

And I got 2 more shots today and had to cry. That’s what babies do when they got sharp needles in their leg.

Another check up day

Another day for the check up and more shots….

I’m 1 inch taller since last month at 24′. I didn’t get to weigh today but I’m guessing I’m at least 15lbs by now.

2 Months check up

Another visit to our friendly Pediatrician’s office today. It’s been two months since I was born and this is the time that I get my immunization shots. Yeah, I wasn’t looking forward to that at all. Luckily, my parents decided to spare me 4 -5 shots in one day by delaying some of the shots for next months so I only ended up getting 2 shots in the leg. Ouch!!

The good news is I’m continually growing. I weighed 11.8lbs and my height is 23inches. The doctor said my height and weight are at 50 percentile, which is good. My head size was only 15inches, which put me at only 25 percentile. Somehow that made my mommy happy since she prefers small head.

2nd Doctor’s visit

I went in for my second visit. Weighed in at 8.15lb!! So, in 2 weeks exactly, I gained 1.85lbs. That’s almost 30% gain. And if I keep up that rate, I’ll be 10.6lbs in 2 weeks, 13.8lbs in 4 weeks, and 17.9lbs in 6 weeks. (You can tell my dad likes numbers). I was told everything is good. When I come back again for my 2 months check up, that’s when I’ll get vaccination shots. I’m not looking forward to that one, let me tell ya.
