6-Month Well Baby: Still Perfectly Petite

Chase had her well baby appointment this morning and 4 shots to cap off her last visit for a while. She's about 13 lbs and 25 1/4" long. A few days before each of her well-baby visit, I always got a little nervous that the docs would tell me that she needed to gain more weight. Thankfully, they all practiced a principle, which took the whole baby into consideration and not just a growth chart. As soon as her pediatrician walked into the room and saw her today, she proclaimed "she's perfect!" It made the whole visit much easier on momma. Now we have her blessing to really start solids, even though we cheated and gave her some food a month ago. Also, her doctor didn't think that the rash Chase developed was a result of an allergic reaction to the cereal. Hmmmm... Well, now that we have to start, I guess we'll find out soon enough.
