9 month appointment questions?

Is there anything important you have asked at your appointment?

 We have DS's tomorrow and I haven't been very on top of reading what is coming up in the next few months and knowing what to ask about!

I plan to ask what are the milestones coming up in the next 3 months.  Just so I know if we are hitting them.

I plan on asking about food.  I think we're behind and I want to know where we should be.

I'm also asking about naps.  My LO has been fighting his afternoon nap, so I'm wondering if he's supposed to drop one now.

We just had ours today.

We were really interested in how she was tracking on her numbers (weight, etc). and food. We talked about how we were introducing foods, could we start with fish, etc. Talked about high allergy risk foods. We talked about baby-proofing. We discussed milestones and activities to focus on for the next few months. We talked about social behavior.

We also reviewed our vaccination schedule (we are on a delayed schedule) and started thinking about what shorts she'd get at 12 months and which at 15. We talked about the flu shot.

She did a full body exam (looked at tummy, listened to heart, lung and digestive system). Doctor did a diaper off check as well. The doctor also checked reflexes and asked about sleeping.

Our only real questions were around food since otherwise our LO has been pretty strong and from our checklist we knew she was hitting most milestones.

We just had ours about 10 days ago. i asked about table food, how much formula, transition to wcm, and how she was at meeting milestones.

We had our appointment last week.  My biggest questions were about food.  What should she be eatting, what should we be working towards her eatting, at what point do we start moving away from bottles providing the main nutrician and having solids replace that.  Another one I asked was about sleeping with a blanket.
