18-Month Check-up
June 23, 2008 7:03 pm UncategorizedWe had Dougie’s 18 month check-up today. He’s still growing and remains on his curve. He’s lost a little bit of weight since his appointment a few weeks ago but all in all, he’s doing really well.
Stats:
- Weight – 22lbs 8oz (12%)
- Height – 32″ (39%)
- Head – 19″ (63%)
The doctor went through an Autism identification checklist and Dougie was put in the low risk category. He checked other basic health markers and Dougie was completely healthy. We have been having a small problem with vomiting but the doctor has already referred us to a Pediatric GI for that issue.
We went through Dougie’s development. He is actually on track or ahead on all the markers. We were a bit surprised because we thought he would be measuring behind on language but I guess his 11 words were enough.
We got a DTaP shot and were on our way. Dougie did exceptionally well with this visit. We won’t go back now until he turns 2.
