Hadley & Mommy ventured back to the doctor's office last Monday morning, after her birthday party weekend. Party's over - ha! I know it's no fun for her, but I enjoy taking her to her well visit appointments, just for the sake of finding out her measurements and percentiles!
Hadley's 12 Month Stats:
Height: 29 inches (50th percentile)
Weight: 18lbs, 5 oz (10th percentile)
Head circumference: 45.4cm (60th percentile)
Still such a little girl. Our doctor said that there was nothing to be concerned with regarding her weight since she has gained 3 lbs since her last well visit and her proportions and percentiles have remained consistent. He said she'll probably just continue to be on the smaller end of the scale (weight wise) for a little while. She's healthy and doing great developmentally! All great news!
She did have to have her toe pricked to test for lead and she was also given three vaccination shots. I was the most worried about the shots going into this visit. She is pretty strong now and I wasn't sure if the nurse and I would be able to restrain her, but we did and she actually did pretty well. She didn't cry at all for the toe prick and although she got upset about the shots, she got over that fairly quickly!
Big girl! Another good visit at the doctor's office! So glad that we made it an entire year without any sick visits or illness! :)
We will go back at 15 months for more shots...yuck!
