4 Month Check Up

Layla went to see Dr. Green today for her 4 month check up. She had to have 3 shots which she screamed her lungs out for:-(. Other than that, it went good. She made it on the charts for height and head circumfrence, but not for weight. She had been gaining weight at a greater rate (steeper slope) than the growth charts, but now her weight line is starting to curve like the growth chart line. Therefore, we have to increase the amount of formula we put in her breast milk so that she gets more calories.

Here are her stats:

Height: 22 1/8" (3%)
Head Circ: 38.8 (5-10%)
Weight: 9.5 lbs (not on charts:-( )

Happy before going to the doctor...


Showing off her pretty bandaids...

awe, so cute, smiling before the doctor - my bet is that she wouldn't be smiling if she knew he was going to stab her with needles.

What a cute little smile!! :)

I hate those screams when they get their shots:(

It's funny that she's the opposite of Jonathan - both off the charts - just at different spectrums (although I guess it's not so good that she's off in weight, so hopefully she'll gain by next time!)
