Michael had his 6 month check-up today. It went really well, except the little stinker decided to grab the needle before he got his shots. He pricked his finger good and it started to bleed. That didn't make him too happy. But, he calmed down after he got his shots and mommy held him. Jason and I both went to the appointment and we got to ask all the random questions we have about this stage....about sleeping, eating, teething, etc. One thing the pediatrician recommended was to feed him two meals a day of solid food. We had just been giving him solid food once a day. But, apparently our growing boy needs more, which may help him sleep more too...woo hoo. Anyway, here are his stats:
6 months:
length: 28 inches (93rd percentile)
weight: 18 lbs. 8.5 ounces (70th percentile)
head: 17.5 inches (70th percentile)
4 months:
length: 26 inches (88th percentile)
weight: 15 pounds 3.5 ounces (50th percentile)
head: 17 1/8 inches (75th percentile)
2 months:
length: 23 3/4 inches (80th percentile)
weight: 12 pounds 7.5 ounces (65th percentile)
head: 16 1/4" (75th percentile)
1 month:
length: 23 inches (90th percentile)
weight: 10 pounds 5.5 ounces (75th percentile)
head: 15.5" (75th percentile)
Birth:
length: 21.5 inches
weight: 8 pounds 15 ounces

He grabbed the needle? Sounds like something his daddy would have done at 6 mos.
