6 Month Well Baby Visit


Finally! Now that Barret is almost 7 months we got in for our 6 month well baby visit! We switched doctors and today was our first day with Dr. Kane and we LOVE her! Not only did we feel welcome in the office but the nurses were so nice and the doctor was so open to any questions we had and she actually answered what we asked. She gave her insight and suggestions without us feeling like she didn't know what to say and she was bold and upfront with any answer she gave us. The best part was that Barret even got to have his shots in the office! So no more taking him to the health department to sit and wait and waste 2 hours and be miserable. We are so happy!
Barret weighed 17lbs 2 oz 35%
his height was 27 1/4 in 75%
and his head was 17 1/2 in 50%

YAY! He is abnormally tall!!!!!
The doctor even said that he was perfect :) I don't think the nurse told her that when she tried to take his temperature he was pooping and that he peed all over the bed. :) Nothing like making a good first impression ;)

They gave him his shots right then and there and he started crying before they even put the needle in, but then only cried for about 3 minutes. As soon as we picked him up he was okay, they even gave him a superman sticker and sesame street band aids :)

And of course now he is completely worn out and will probably sleep the rest of the day.
