Ellie's 6 month checkup recap! 15.4lbs & 29in!! 🤩
She's in the 27th percentile in weight(15.4lbs) and in the 95th percentile in length(29in)! 😮 It's surprising to me considering I'm average height(5'4.5) and hubby is below average in height(5'8.5), but her pediatrician said it's not surprising since babies are constantly growing and said it'll taper off eventually. I didn't realize how tall she was though!
She got her finger pricked for iron and her results are normal. She didn't cry initially when they first pricked her, but she screamed and cried the whole time they were getting the blood out of her finger. 😥 She also cried when her pediatrician examined her and was staring at me the whole time. I'm guessing she's getting more stranger cautions. She screamed bloody murder when she got her vaccines too. I know everyone in the doctor's office heard her. She was SO loud. My poor baby 😭😭😭 Doc said she looks great though, and for that, I'm extremely grateful 🙏
I'm so glad it's over with! Now, we're back at home, and she's been fussy. She's currently nursing and falling asleep. Ugh, as much as I know it's what's best for my baby, I hate these appointments!!
