Doctors Round 2

(Sorry for the delay in getting this post up) Well, Syler went to the doctors this past Monday for his 4 month Child Wellness visit and his second round of vaccinations. So, how is Syler doing? He is doing wonderfully. He is weighing in at 15 lbs 3.5 ounces, which puts him at the 50%-tile. As for his height, he measures at 26 1/4 inches, putting him in the 75%-tile (slightly above average). Sy's head circumference is 17 1/4 inches. Syler is also where he should be developmentally.

Over the past month, Miguel and I have been questioning if he is teething or not. Well, he is in the process of getting his first tooth. Right now he has what is called nepstine pearl on his gum, which is a white spot that forms on the gum. So the doctor took and look and he stated that he is starting to get a tooth, it just hasn't broken threw yet. The doctor said that getting a tooth can be a very long process for some babies. Also, the doctor is very happy, as are we, with Sy's belly button. The doctor also gave us the go ahead to start rice cereal. I will post on that when we give it a shot.

Lastly, Syler received his second round of vaccine shots. I must say, he did better this time than last. He did not scream as much as he did before, but he did cry during the whole process and for a very long time after. Overall, he is doing really well and the doctor is very pleased.

We go back to the doctors in 2 months.
