Trey is now 4 months old, and I can't believe it!! We took him today for his 4 month check up, and everything is good, other than the fact, that we had to take him to the ER on Tuesday night for an ear infection. He's getting better now, and the doctor said that it is looking better! At 4 months:
Trey weighs 12 lb 7 oz (10th percentile..hahaha!! The doctor said he wasn't too skinny though and that he was fine!)
Trey is 26" long (85th percentile...whoo hoo!! He grew 4" in the last 2 months!! I'm so excited!)
The doctor commented on how alert he is since he was sitting in my lap looking at the doctor when he was talking just listening!
He can now start eating food, so we will start that tonight! Should be entertaining I'm sure!
He got the 2nd round of his shots, and he didn't even cry at all on the first one! The 2nd shot, he whimpered, and the 3rd shot just really made him mad! But as soon as I picked him up, he quit crying!
We go back in 2 months for another check up as long as he doesn't need to be seen before then!! Here's hoping!
My good friend up here has a son that is always those same %s....10th for weight and 85+ for height. He takes after his dad -- long and lanky. Once the pediatrician recommended supplementing with formula because of the "low" weight % but then his dad walked into the appointment and he saw that it was a family thing and not a "not-getting-enough-food" thing, so she was glad she didn't have to fight the pediatrician on that because he's breastfed, so he's leaner, but that isn't a bad thing! Looks like Trey takes after his mama-- tall and thin!
