9 month appointment update

[monkeybabe]

So, apparently I'm just terrible at baby measuring. Zoe's grown an inch and a half in the last 3 months. The pediatrician says she looks perfect and is just small, which comes as no surprise since she has small parents.

Her stats were:
14lbs 10oz 1%ile (up 1lb 2oz from 6 months)
26.5 inches long 3%ile
16.5 inch head 1%ile

Yay Zoe! Glad there was nothing to worry about.

[TrudyCampbell]

That's great!

[raynes]

Yay! Glad to hear there was no concern. At least she's proportional!

[creamsiclechica]

Yessssssssss! I was hoping for this! Glad to see the update. Grow, Zoe, grow! She's perfect!

Glad everything went good.
Baby measuring is hard! My DH measured my LO 3 times the other night and he kept getting measurements that would have meant she shrunk since 6 months

Oh, super fun thing this morning. I went to leave for Zoe's appointment and I couldn't find my car keys, couldn't find them anywhere. So I was like, "Okay, backtrack, when was the last time you had them?" and when I started thinking about it, I remembered that last night we went to Home Depot with my dad and because Patsy insists on riding shotgun and my dad is 6'1 and I drive a focus, my dad had to drive (Patsy doesn't have a license). I grab my coat and get my phone out and see that I have a missed call from last night from my dad and a voicemail. My dad has my keys. My dad lives on the far side of the city, works graveyard and is, therefore, asleep, and Zoe's appointment is in 10 minutes. Luckily, Patsy and our roommate hadn't left for work yet (they work together, roomie drives), so I called the ped's office, who pushed my appointment back 45 minutes and the boys dropped us off on their way to work. My mom, who was home sick from work today, ended up coming and picking us up and bringing me my keys. It was a fun start to the week.

Hee. Cute! Are you fairly small too?

They tried weighing Max at the pedi today and couldn't because he kept wiggling and crying. They kept telling me that he needs to hold still but I can't touch him bc it was throwing the scale off. I almost punched them.

What a sweet munchkin! I don't even remember what 14lbs feels like. My back would like to remember though (yea, pretty sure Colin is double her size in weight!). Zoe is so active though unlike Colin who will sit in one spot for an hour.

[hass2001]

So glad everything went well!

[lauranicole91]

Yay!!! April peanuts unite!! Haha!! Go Zoe!!

[rainbowchip]

Little peanut!

[AndyCohen]

Oh this is so great to hear!! That must be a load off.

[ruby412]

Good news!

[Deleted]

She's a perfect little peanut!

[jaime183]

Yay Zoe!

[charlielove]

Glad she is doing well!!

[monkeybabe]

Yeah, I've just got to get used to her being so tiny. She won't be doubling her birth weight for a long time.

[carawestt]

Yay! That's awesome!

[Deleted]

Hell of a morning, eh? Glad all is well and Zoe is as healthy as she is cute!

[monkeybabe]

Oh, and I'm 5'4, so pretty average, I think. My H was 4'10 until he was 16, though. He's 5'10 now.

[mrsjaymay]

Great news, she is perfect!
