12 Month Well Visit


Brandon had his 12 month well visit appointment at the pediatrician today. He weighs 18 pounds, 14 ounces, 28 3/4 inches long, and his head circumference is 46 cm. That puts him in the 5th percentile for weight for his actual age of 12 months, in the 25th percentile for length for his actual age, and the 50th percentile for his head for his actual age. Dr. O'Brien couldn't believe he was born at 26 weeks, 1 day. He said we can switch to whole milk, Brandon can now have berries, tomatoes, and citrus, and he can start having table food. When he reaches 20 pounds he can face forward in his car seat. Brandon had two shots today (prevnar and hepatitis a)and he cried after each of them and he had the mantoux test done.

Brandon now has 4 teeth, 2 bottom and 2 top. He loves to feed himself banana and puffs. He is still army crawling all over the place and can walk if I hold his two hands. He is in 12 month clothes from Carters and 6-12 month from baby gap and gymboree but is almost in 12-18 month from those two stores.
