I just now read your post about Joseph and his percentiles. Did you rent a scale? If so, how is that going?
At any rate, I wouldn't worry tooooo much...I mean, he seems to be ahead of all the developmental milestones, which is a really good sign. I also think that TJ looks really tiny still, for a guy! And, knowing that you know a lot about statistics, I'm sure I don't have to remind you that *somebody* has to be at the bottom for percentiles to exist! ![]()
Re: Jen
Thanks.
I actually called one hospital last week and they took a while to get back to me but they didn't have them. I'm going to call a different one this week. I'm pretty sure he's just a tiny baby, but I figure if I start keeping track of what I eat, how much he's gaining, and days where he's spitting up more then I can show the pedi at his 4 mo appt. At this point I'm just trying to be proactive, I guess.
And T.J. is tiny... he's barely pushing 120 right now at 5'10"! (Jerk)

Ah, I didn't know he spit up a lot. Ben has just now finally quit spitting up a lot. He'd do it like two hours after eating quite often...that's why he's always got a bib on! It never was a whole lot, though, he just did it ALL.THE.TIME.
It sounds like a good plan, though, to be set for his next appointment.
I think I saw baby scales in Target once...I'm not sure if they were accurate enough for what you want to do, though.
