6 month Well Check

Bryn had her well check this afternoon. Everything is on track except for her weight. She's in the 25th percentile and her pediatrician encouraged me to add a nursing session and only offer rice cereal/baby food twice a day. Not quite sure how I feel about that because she's doing well on her eat/play/sleep cycle and that means she'll need to nurse every 2 1/2 hours to squeeze 6 feedings in. We'll see how it all works out. The doc was amazed at her babbling skills and said many kids don't gibber-gabber like that until 9 months. Her length puts her in the 90th percentile and doc said she's as long as most 9 month olds are. We have a long, lanky girl on our hands! Here are her specific stats: Weight: 14 lbs 12 oz; 25th percentile Height: 27 in.; 90th percentile Head Circumference: 16 3/4 in.- they didn't give me a percentile. If we can get her weight up by her next well visit, we'll be good to go!
