Riley's Two Month Check-up

Even though our sweet baby girl is eleven weeks old, she just had her two month check-up today.  Our pediatrician has a pretty full schedule, which I like to take as a sign that he's great at his job!  So instead of going to see another doctor, we waited a little longer to get in to see him.

Riley was 23.5 inches long (2.5 inches up from birth) and 12 lbs (3 lbs, 10 oz up from her birth weight).  He said she was in the 60th percentile in height and the 65th in weight, so everything looks to be progressing as normal.  Which was relief to this mama, who may or may not have spent the past sixish weeks deciding that Riley was not putting on weight and that it was all my fault.  Talk about wasted energy.

Her lungs and heart sounded great, he felt good about her weight gain, and he was happy with her milestones and her progress on sleep.  Then she got three shots and one oral vaccine - I hated them jabbing the needles into her rolly polly legs.

Her doctor did say that if hair came in percentiles, she'd be off the charts.


And cuteness?  There's not even a comparison.
