Then, after a long weekend of battling what the doctor thinks was the swine flu (but we think she was just trying to get out of her vaccinations because she got sick on the day of her well-baby visit!), Hailey finally make it in for her 4 month check-up. Mommy had to hold her during her shots this time, and as expected, it was excruciating! Fortunately, I didn't bawl my eyes out like I did last time, but Hailey on the other hand, that's a different story...
After some oatmeal and a long nap, she woke up a much happier baby. She's very proud of her new stats: Weight: 13 lbs 9oz (50th percentile)
Height: 25 1/4" (75th percentile)
HEAD: 16 3/4" (90th PERCENTILE!!) Good Lord that's a big dome-structure...she has her Daddy to thank for that! Seriously, the nurse had to come back in and measure her head again just to make sure it was actually that large! She's gone from 5th to 90th percentile in 3 months! Lots of brains I guess!
She's still our cutie, big head and all!
I had an old lady stop me in the mall the other day to tell me that she just knew Boss was a genius by the size of his head! She told me she was qualified to know such things because she had taught school for 27 years.
ReplyDeleteSo, big heads are good! And they sure are cute on Miss Buggy.
I am so sorry she has been sick. Sick babies are the worst! You feel so helpless.
