On Monday we had Amelia's 6 month visit to the doctor and all is good. She is still on track for her growth and her motor skills are way advanced. The doctor was surprised at how well she could sit up and that she is "crawling". She actually was scooting around so well on the exam table that she kept trying to move towards the "baby that looked like her" and creamed her head into the mirror about 3 different times... you'd think that Tim and I would have learned!
While she isn't sleeping through the night yet (and it's killing me), the doctor mentioned that she probably could and to try to let her cry it out a bit. Last night, for her dream feed, Tim gave her 5 ounces at 11 instead of 3 ounces at 10 and she slept until 5:45.... I can handle that. We'll see how things go as we try to get the formula right on how much food she needs and when - but Mommy needs some more sleep.
Her stats:
weight: 15 lbs even, about 25th percentile
Height: 25 1/4 inches, about 25th percentile
Head: 42.5 cms, about 50th percentile
Miles was also on the smaller size at his 6 month visit - nursed kids tend to be.
