Re: ~*~ 4 month Appointment Check In ~*~
Hi we just had ours. Here's Isabella stats:
Dues Date: May 18th Actual birth date: May 18th 6lbs 6 oz, 19in
Date of appointment: Sept 26, 18.5 weeks old
12lbs, 12 oz and 24 in
Vaccines, oh boy I can't remember the names. all the standard stuff up here with the rotavirus. Slight fever started next day for a bit, but other then that she was un-phased!
Dr. recommendations. We basically had it out. Isabella is EBF and the Dr. suggested FF'ing if I didn't like her weight gain. Needless to say, I sought a second opinion and got some extra help to make sure my supply is boosted. We're all good now!
Birth date: May 26
Date of appointment: Sep 26, 4 months exactly
Weight/length: 15lbs 14oz, 25 inches
Vaccinations: cant remember them all but 3 in the thighs and one orally, no fever but screamed each time we tried putting her down to sleep, finally put her in the swing where she slept the rest of the night
Recommendations: keep feeding every 2 hrs and feed rice cereal twice/day. At 51/2 months try veggies, at 6 months try fruits and she will see us agin at 6 months

Dr. is worried about weight he's EBF and suggested supplementing, wants to see him again in a week and a half to check weight. Doc. isn't supper worried since he is still growing.

2 shots (one was a combo) and one oral. DD has red marks on her legs, was fussy, and had a low grade fever much of yesterday. She is much better today!
* Anything special the Dr. Said or recommended?
We are going off of the reflux meds and the pedi believes the milk allergy is the issue. He'd like me to start solids and get rolling on introducing her to peanut butter (I have a peanut allergy and wants her to be intro'd to it early).
Due May 12th / bday May 21st. 8 lbs 9 oz and 21.5 inches
* Date of Appoinment / How many weeks your LO is at the appointment. Appt was on Monday Sept 23rd, so 4 months 2 days
* Lbs / Length at 4 month appointment? 12.2 lbs and 25 inches
* What Vaccinations did they receive ? Any reactions to vaccines? The standard ones and she was a bit fussy, ran a low grade fever and threw up one time which scared me half to death but she's fine.
* Anything special the Dr. Said or recommended? She said we could start mixing in rice cereal to her BM but when I told her I was hesitant she said we could wait. Her reasoning was so baby gets used to the texture, not for weight gain reasons, so I'm not worried. I am leaning more towards BLW anyway.
