16 Month Dr. Visit Update

So Ryan just got back with Rory from the doctor. This was supposed to be her 15 month old apt but they didnt have an opening till now. She was:
  • 19 lbs (she was actually 19.7 but they take off for clothes and diaper since they dont do naked baby anymore) and that puts her at the 2nd percentile for weight.
  • 30 inches even, which puts her at 25th-50th percentile for height.
  • 45.7 cm head, which puts her at 25th-50th percentile for that.
They want her to be getting more good fats (like olive oil) to keep her on track. It looks like she went from 4th to 3rd to 2nd percentile these last few times so its nothing to be super concerned with, just to be aware of and to try to make sure shes getting good healthy fats to keep her growth curve up.

  1. Oh my gosh she is really 19lbs! Luke was 21lbs 10oz naked and they say 31 inches. I can't believe she is so close to making 20lbs she still feels like 15lbs max! I love her and can't wait to see her Saturday!

  2. She's such a beautiful tiny little girl!! Believe me, I'd rather be carrying around an almost 20 pound baby... Hazel just weighed in at a whopping 33lbs!! What's funny is that at the camping trip in a few years I bet the girls will be about the same size, even though they are at opposite ends of the spectrum right now.

  4. She is such a cutie!! And I'm sure she'll love having to eat more of those healthy fats :) We got a South African growth chart today, and just thought it was interesting, that she would be somewhere in about the 10th percentile here. It's hard to tell exactly cause it's not all listed, but she's definitely above the 3rd. Love and miss you all!
