We took Miss Avery to her 4 Month Check up this morning...of course they were running late...here are her stats:
Weight = 16lbs 8oz = 95%
Height = 26 Inches = 95-97%
Head = 17 1/4 = 97%
Random - Olivia and Avery weighed the exact same at their 4 Month Check Ups, to the oz...interesting huh? But Avery is 3/4 of an Inch taller, when she started the race over an inch shorter, she is a growing girl.
We talked a lot about her sleeping issues...not much to be done there until at least 6 months old, so we will keep you all posted. She must have known we were going to talk about her because Sunday Night was one of her better nights, but last night she struggled a bit, so who knows, its hard to prepare because we never know what kinda night we are going to get, hence I go to bed at 9pm every single night, not great for my marriage, but hey, you do what you gotta do.
Oh and the shots...our little brave soldier didn't even shed a tear, she almost giggled...but we split them up so she will get a few more in about 3 weeks.
A few areas of concern were brought up that left me a little nervous, but I am trying to keep a level head and heart about it until we know more. Her heart murmur is still present so if at 6 months we are still hearing it, she will visit Dr. Allen, a Pediatric Cardiologist at MCV to get everything checked out. Apparently "Flow" Murmurs are usually gone by 6 months so they want to rule that out before putting her through a battery of tests, me on the other hand would have rushed her down there yesterday after our appointment to just give me peace of mind, but that isn't how the medical community works. And her head...while its in line with the rest of her body, it has grown a TON in the last two months, visually on the growth chart it was a huge spike and took my breath away, so after thinking about it overnight our Pediatrician called us back this morning and wants to see her again in 3 weeks to remeasure.
