Check-Up
We are definitely behind on Charlie's checkups and shot schedule. We have all been sick so frequently that it has been hard to get him in for well visits. Shots are hard enough on the immune system that I try to be careful about giving them when he has a cold or other virus, so that has made it hard to stay on schedule.
When he was 5 months old we went for his 4 month well-visit. I don't think I ever posted his stats from that, so here goes: 19 pounds and 4 ounces (92nd percentile), 26 inches (54th percentile), and head circumference was 17 inches (71st percentile) He was healthy and received his vaccines for the 4th month, DTaP and Rotavirus.
This technically was his six month well-visit, but he was nearly eight months old! This time his stats are: weight 21 pounds (84th percentile), height 28 inches (62nd percentile), and head circumference 18 inches (84th percentile). She checked his ears and they both healed up well and the ear drum that perforated is now sealed up. His improved mood made me confident that he was better, but glad to have the confirmation. He received the prevnar and HIB vaccines, which made him feel a little cranky and yuck. These are the vaccines he should have had at 5 months old, so we have some catching up to do, but we will just go back every few weeks until we are all caught up.
Developmentally he is right on track or a little ahead. He is eating solids, babbling, rolling around, sitting up, scooting, responding socially, laughing, and smile just like a baby boy his age should.
