Jayden's 6 month check-up went good yesterday afternoon! ...especially because Jack stayed home with Uncle Hayden and had a great time playing, rather than running around crazy at the doctors office :)
-----
Height - 27 inches 73%ile (up 1.5 inches from 4 months)
Weight - 14lbs 11.5oz 8%ile (at 4 months - 13lbs 3.5oz 13%ile)
----
Since his weight percentile was lower, when we go back in a month for Jayden's second flu shot he'll get weighed again. Dr. D isn't worried right now - because they usually thin out when they start moving around more, but just to be safe he'll be checked again next month before we go back again at 9 months.
-----
Otherwise Jayden looked great. He does have a cold, and had a slight fever (99.2*) but he was still able to get his vaccines and the first flu shot.
-----
Dr. D said to continue adding new foods to his diet and in a month or so he can start on finger foods - cheerios, crackers, etc. And since he won't really take a bottle (although he did yesterday morning just a little bit!) I'll be starting him on a cup pretty soon. Maybe he'll never need a bottle...... that would be nice!
