6 Month Check-Up

We visited Dr. Y this morning for Aidan's 6 month well-baby check-up. Everything looked good and the doctor didn't have any concerns. He said we could start feeding Aidan other solids (veggies and fruits) but only once a day for the next month or so just to make sure Aidan is still getting enough milk/formula. Not surprisingly, my baby is still on the tall, skinny side and the doctor doesn't want him to lose any weight. The doctor thought Aidan might be getting his lower front right tooth. I agree after many sleepless nights the past week.

Here are the measurements:

Length: 27 1/2 inches---88th %
Weight: 15 lbs (even)---12th %
Head: 17 1/2 inches---75th %

Growth from 4 month visit: gained 1 lb 13 oz, grew 1 and 3/4 inches, and his head grew an inch.
