[hikingmama222]

As of Friday, 2 months 3 days

Weight (percentile): 11 lbs 4 oz's (25%)
Height (percentile): 57 cm/22.5 inches (25%) -we figured his last measurement was way off
Head (percentile): 40.3cm /15.8 inches (80 something %)
Immunizations: dTap, hipB, rotavirus, pneumococcal conj
This month baby especially likes: being worn, playmat, making faces, baths
This month baby dislikes: his carseat, having to wait to eat, wet diapers, getting out of the bath
Questions/Concerns/AWs: looks like I've got another small baby on my hands.

[danizee]

Weight (percentile): 13 lbs
Height (percentile): 21.5"
Head (percentile): I don't remember!
Immunizations: we follow recommended schedule, three shots and an oral, poor baby.
This month baby especially likes: trying to catch glimpses of TV across room 😁, cooing and trying to practice laughing (which sounds like a weird grunt)
This month baby dislikes: if she is unable to cluster nurse in evening (we went to a Christmas party last night and it was difficult to nurse and be able to enjoy the party, I think I need to plan ahead for such things and pump.
Questions/Concerns/AWs: she is getting over a cold and I'm hoping her sleeping gets better. She was a good sleeper since day 1 and for the past week her nighttime sleep has been awful. I'm thinking she got used to eating several times per night with all the sicky wake ups and that might be a new norm 😩 I'm so tired.

As of Nov 30 - 2 months on the dot
Weight (percentile): 10 lbs 11 oz
Height (percentile): 22.5 inches
Head (percentile): forget measurement but it was the 97th percentile
Immunizations: 3 shots and an oral
This month baby especially likes: loves playing on the floor with the kick and play piano, smiling and cooing, her big brother's kisses, and the colors on the tv during football
This month baby dislikes: having gas, taking a bottle of formula, and being cold
Questions/Concerns/AWs: we decided to switch from the RNP to the PNP for sleep last night and she did awesome! Down at 9:00, awake at 3:30 to eat, back to sleep at 3:50, and awake at 7:30! I don't know if I am imagining it, but the side of her head that she favors seems a smidge flat, so we figured putting her in the PNP would be the best option.

HL's 2 month check up isn't until the 2nd of Jan. I think. I'm looking into getting a pedi in town because driving an hour just isn't working anymore. I hate change. I am taking her in today so I am sure we'll get some measurements and info today I could put up in the meantime.

[jcrewgirl]

We started our wellness exam so I know the stats. We have to go back next week for immunizations due to H being sick this week.

Head: 16 in

Likes: bath time, eating, smiling, being in the Solly, and listening to his big sister read and sing.

AW:


I'll update with any questions after his exam next week re: RSV, immunizations, his heart murmur and hernia.

[jwinct]

These are as of November 28th. DS was just under 10 weeks old.

Weight (percentile): 13.6 lbs (70%)
Height (percentile): 23" (37%) - I don't think this is accurate; I think he's longer than 23"
Head (percentile): 41.91 cm (99%)
Immunizations: DTaP-HepB-IPV (Pediarix), HIB, Prevnar 13 Intramuscular Suspension, and Rotarix
This month baby especially likes: Sitting up, talking, socializing, his light-up activity gym mat thingy, sitting in the exersaucer (with a fluffy blanket to help prop him up)
This month baby dislikes: Sleeping more than 2 hours at a time at night.
Questions/Concerns/AWs:
Diagnosed with Torticollis and Acquired plagiocephaly of left side - EI is coming to our house on January 4th to evaluate him and see if he qualifies for services. He doesn't lift his head up or push up during tummy time as much as I feel like he should, but I'm also comparing him to my girls and I know all kids are different. They were rolling over onto their bellies at 3 months old and he doesn't even try, so it makes me wonder if he's where he should be.


He looks like he's up to something in this picture.

[mg0202]

Weight (percentile): 12 lbs 1 oz (52%)
Height (percentile): 25" (96%)
Head (percentile): I can't remember the measurement, but it was 32%
So I have a super long baby with average weight and a tiny head

Immunizations: 3 shots which he was very angry about. 1 oral which he drank pretty well
This month baby especially likes: Looking at lights, especially Christmas lights, watching his sister (she can always calm him down!) His playmat
This month baby dislikes: not being held, his carseat (which is not being held) waiting to eat
Questions/Concerns/AWs: He has rolled over from stomach to back. He is still up a lot at night. Sometimes only once, but it can be 90+ minutes. BF is getting easier

[saraml13]

Weight (percentile): 14 lb 5 oz (95th)
Height (percentile): 24.5" (93rd)
Head (percentile): 40.5 cm (63rd)

Questions/Concerns/AWs:

[smallpotato]

He had an appointment at almost 7 weeks, so I took some measurements myself today.

Height: 23 inches (26th)
Head: not sure now, but was 9th percentile at his appointment.
Immunizations: oral rotavirus and 2 others
This month baby especially likes: attention from his big brother, eating, looking all around and exploring
This month baby dislikes: hats that fall over his eyes in the car, waiting more than 10 seconds to be fed or changed when he lets us know he needs it
Questions/Concerns/AW: this poor kid is so gassy but we're working through it.

[Deleted]

Weight (percentile): 11lbs 4 oz (61)
Height (percentile): 24 inches (98)
Head (percentile): 16 inches (100)
Immunizations: oral rotavirus and one in each leg
This month baby especially likes: sleeping on daddy, bear lovey, lion on toy bar, smiling
This month baby dislikes: sleeping on right side, waiting for food, being tired
Anything else: concerns/questions/AWs? She's getting a flat spot but no torticollis or anything. Dr just wants us to encourage her to sleep on the other side. The Dr also isn't concerned she's dropping percentiles as she was large at birth and is now in the 60th. My kids just seem to be long and lean.

[britta]

As of today, at exactly 2 months old.

Weight (percentile): 12lbs 7oz (55th)
Height (percentile): 23" (50th)
Head (percentile): 16" (90th)
Immunizations: DTaP, Hib, Hep B, Polio, PCV13, and oral Rotavirus
This month baby especially likes: Prilosec; his swing and play mat, any light source, and his bath
This month baby dislikes: GERD, getting out of the bath, tummy time, and getting dressed/having his diaper changed
Questions/Concerns/AWs: Plan for GERD is to remain on the Prilosec until he's about 9 months old, unless he gets worse. He has a persistent blocked tear duct that we will monitor until his 6 month appt. Otherwise, he's healthy as they come!

My chunka. PDQ.
*poof*

[britta]

It's interesting to me how the percentiles vary so much....

Are some docs using the CDC vs WHO charts? And then boy vs girl charts are different obviously...

That could be. I'm not sure which my doc uses.

FFWC: I didn't know the boys and girls charts were different. I assumed babies were all pretty much the same at this age. 😬😂 #notapedsnurse

[eponine1007]

Hey guise! Sorry I've been MIA. This working mom stuff isn't easy!

My girl is a little stinker and is actually closer to three months now cause she came early, but here are her stats from her two month checkup...

[sanibel21]

She had her appt yesterday at 8 weeks.
Weight (percentile): 12 lbs 15 oz, 89%ile
Height (percentile): 24.5 in >99%ile

This month baby especially likes: smiling and cooing back and forth, sitting upright and facing out, being warm and swaddled
This month baby dislikes: being put down, gas, pooping
Questions/Concerns/AWS: discomfort from gas, took 5 days to poop (which I know can be normal), and putting her down so much which makes her fuss- I just feel bad she is put down and fusses so much more than I ever let DD1.
I love that she's smiling and cooing in response to me now.

[britta]

@holachica you're telling me on the difference in kids! DS1 was SO easygoing. This one? Even with the GERD under control I feel like he's still a grump 85% of the day LOL. But his happy times make it worth it because he has permagrin the whole time, so there's that.

[wahooMOM13]

Weight (percentile): 11 lbs 8 oz (50th%)
Height (percentile): 22.25" (40th%)

[becole]

Baby is 13 lbs and 23 inches, almost 16 inch head circ. He's just as perfect as they come.

[becole]

Anyone else's kid cry from the rotavirus liquid? He acted like it was torture and got really mad and had real tears. Then he had his shots and really got mad.

[vavavictoria]

becole C was not a fan of the liquid. You would think they would love something super sweet.
