[krispy83]

Height: 28 in

[lilyelayne]

Bump. Let me know if y'all don't want this sticky.

[dreemkin]

Height: 28in (62%)

Weight: 18lbs (60%)

Head: 46cm (94%) it's all those brains

Milestones: She's just starting to pull herself up on things. Others would be: clapping/waving, handing toys back to me when I hold out my hand, picking up cherrios w/ her thumb and pointer.

Solids: I guess I should have waited on eggs too but my Pedi said since they are too little to tell us if they have a reaction/sensitivity to high allergy foods, it's probably better to hold off. And I agree. I don't need to push it. But he did say there are different theories on the matter and to just be careful/have benadryl on hand if I try them. Basically, parents are gonna do what they're gonna do.

Here's a rare sighting: Elton Anna

[janedean77]

Height:28.5"

Solids: He'll eat chunky purees but would prefer table food.

[dreemkin]

janedean77 I know the percentiles are different for boys/girls. Not sure about what they follow too. Ours follows the WHO.

I'm not sure if they follow WHO. I should probably ask at the next appointment. I did realize the boy/girl difference. I just didn't think about it.

I'm amazed he only gained 1lb since 6mo visit! Dr said that was totally normal for BF babies and that from here on out we'll get a better feel for what his natural growth curve really will be.

Sorry if huge. This was how he greeted me this morning when I opened the door to his room.
