4 month check up!

Melanie is 4 months old!!! Can you believe it??? I took her to the dr today and here are the stats...

At birth: 5 lbs 11 oz
17.5 inches long

At 1 month: 7 lbs 1 oz
20 inches long

At 2 months: 8 lbs 4 oz
20 3/4 inches long

At 4 months: 10 lbs 15 oz
23 1/4 inches long


As you can see she is growing so much!! She is very very small... the dr said that she is in the 2nd percentile but she is still in the chart! So she was very happy to see that she is doing great. She said that Melanie is a very strong baby... she rolled over already and the way she stands up when you hold her its very good.. she is gonna be like her big sissy.. very athletic
Dr said she is doing amazing. She is responding and doing everything that she should be doing. She got 4 shots and she is not happy right now. She goes back at 6 months.
Because of how small she is Dr recommended not to start solids right now.. she asks us to wait until next month to start giving her solids.
Thats all for now... we are so happy!
