@nolagal, it is weird. I figure some of it must be difference between sex? Maybe also some are using CDC charts and some WHO charts? Oh, and also differences in age maybe (at least my DD's 4 mo appt was more like 4.5 old).

They use a different chart for boys vs girls, and the also have a different chart for preemies before 37 weeks chart.
Milestones Rolling from tummy to back, rolling from back to side, holding bottle, grabbing everything, cooing and babbling, lifting head and chest during tummy time, enjoying solids, and just your run of the mill adorableness.
Anything else? Doc changed her formula again. Hopefully we can get this vomiting under control. She said "severe GERD" but didn't prescribe anything.
Height: 25.75 in (72nd %) Weight: 15 lbs 7 oz (46th %) - feeling really good about the weight gain Head Circumference: 46 cm (99th %) Milestones: rolls both ways, laughs, coos, reaches for items, STTN Anything else: Was told no solids until 6 months
Height: 25.5 (90th) Weight: 14 lbs 1oz (50th) Head Circumference: I wasn't listening - oops! Milestones: rolls back to tummy (she was rolling tummy to back but has stopped, not sure why), sttn most of the time, cooing and giggling, grabs toys, holds own bottle Anything else: nope!

Dd stopped rolling tummy to back and I think it is because she is working on moving forward and has temporarily forgotten how to roll over. It's a pain when she flips her self on her tummy in the morning and gets mad.

Yep!! We had to start swaddling again because instead of napping, she would flip herself over onto her tummy and scream. I watch her on the monitor to make sure she can't roll in her swaddle... It is a pain!

Silly babies! Ironically I put her on her tummy for naps so she will stay asleep. She rolls onto her side to fall asleep and then flops over and wakes herself up. She doesn't do that on her tummy. Babies are weird.
Don't quite remember percentiles but his growth curves are good Height- 25" (50%) Weight- 17lb 10oz (90%) Head- 41cm (25%)
Size 3 diapers, size 3-6mo clothes. Rolls back to side but not all the way over. Looooves tummy time so he doesn't even try to roll tummy to back. Getting good at reaching, grabbing, bringing things to his mouth. Getting close to sitting up.
Pedi said to start solids sometime between now and 6 months. Start with rice cereal and move on to purées once he loses the newborn tongue thrust reflex. Says exclusively nursed babies who aren't introduced to solids by 7 months tend to refuse solids which causes ongoing problems & grief.
Dr also okayed insect repellent with DEET as long as it is branded as "family". Says one application is good for 6-8 hours. (She noticed a mosquito bite on his foot.)

H: 26 W: 16.10 (way lower than I thought but at his last appointment he was 21 inches so maybe it all stretched out haha) Rolls both ways and sticks everything in his mouth, we're working on sitting, still won't take food without pushing it out.

Good to know. I had forgotten to ask at our appointment.
I've gotten one of those essential oil insect repelling bands. Don't know how well they work, but I wish I'd had it for our trip. DS and DH had no bites and I got 20 bites.
Milestones: laughing, feet in mouth, almost sitting up on own, rolling over (tummy to back & back to tummy), jumping, walking (in walker), scooting forward (doesn't know what to do with arms yet), cooing, drooling, everything in mouth.....
We get to start rice cereal since DS is showing signs of being ready!
