BabyL went for his 4-month well baby visit on Tuesday. He weighed in at 15 lbs 1.3 ounces (43rd percentile); measured 25.25 inches long (54th percentile) and his head circumference is 16.5 inches (31st percentile).
He is developing well. He is close to rolling over, he makes "ahh," "ooh," and "goo" sounds. He knows the sounds of my and D's voices, and recognizes our faces. He holds objects in his hands. She said his torso muscles are developing well, though he still needs quite a bit of support to sit upright.
He got another round of vaccines: one oral, and two injections. He had no reaction to the first round, but this time around, he did have a fever of 100.8 degrees.
She said that he will soon start passing objects from hand-to-hand. He will increase his "vocabulary." He will roll over. He will start grabbing his own feet. He will learn his name. She said that we could begin 1st stage baby foods whenever we feel comfortable, but I've chosen to wait to closer to 6 months. For now, BabyL is still exclusively breastfed.
