6 month drs appt

Abby had her 6 month check up last Friday. She was 16lbs 2oz and 27 1/4 in long. So she was in the 70th percentile for weight and 95th for height. She was really good for Dr. Julia (as always). She was trying to show her how she can move from the sitting position to the crawling position on the exam table. She was non-stop moving and grabbing. At one point she just took the stethascope right from the doctor. Thank goodness pediatricians find this amusing. We also found out that our Dr. is having her own baby in August! So seeing Abby gives her a taste of what she is about to experience. Abby had to get 3 shots and an oral vaccine which are never fun but she was a trooper!

Just wait....I think it was around the 9 month check-up, but then definitely the 12 month check up that something clicked and Ben became terrified of the Doc. The doctor looked at me and said, "Yup, it's about that time for him to start hating me!"

Thanks for the heads up! The doctor doesn't give the shots which is a good thing because I would hate for Abby to not like her Dr. It is the nurse that gives her the shots and I think Abby has figured out that when the Dr. leaves someone very mean comes in! Thank goodness it only lasts about 1 min =)
