Skyla's 6 month appt.

She did great. She's still tiny .. dr. said she looks great but he wants to see her back in a month to see how her growth is doing. He's not the same ped we had with Chip so I explained that he did the same thing Skyla is doing and explained how everyone on Charles is side of the family is skinny. He said it was probably just genetics and that his daughter did the exact same thing as a baby and is still petite now at 13. He said he wasn't going to be an alarmist but he didn't want to wait 3 months to see how her growth is doing .. so we go back at 7 months to do another growth check. I told him I was expecting it. He said she is perfectly proportionate though 12lbs 8oz and 25" long and her head is 40 centimeters around. He said since she is doing so great eating and nursing not to do anything different. He also said her waking up at night meant a choice for us .. whether we think we want to keep getting up at night .. or whether we want to force her to figure out the sleeping issue on her own. He said at this point its a habit and if we decide we want her to break it the earlier the better because the older she gets the harder it will be on both us and her but he said it was totally our choice. He said she was totally precious .. she was totally flirting with him!!! The shots sucked she got 4 of them .. and she held her breath and turned purple and then let out this heart breaking scream. It was awful but she was fine by the time I got her dressed and she fell asleep in the car and is sleeping it off.
