12 Month Stats!

Currently Liam is still going to two doctor's offices until we get more permanent insurance (hopefully this will be soon!). His first appointment with his primary pediatrician was back on November 4. Then he was 22 pounds 4 ounces, 29.5 inches long, and the nurse thought he had a 17.25 head circumference... which was odd because it was smaller than previously measured! I figured there was just an error somewhere down the line. Sure enough, today's appointment confirmed that. He was 22 pounds even (the 4 ounce difference could even be from different scales!), 30.25 inches (even with margin of error, I think someone had a growth spurt!), and had a 18.25 head circumference. This head measurement was more like it, and right on the expected curve. I have no idea how there could be that big of a difference, other than perhaps his head shape (that looks completely normal) was throwing them off somehow? Overall, Liam looks great and is right on target for everything. Today he got the Varicella (Chicken Pox), Prevnar (covers pneumococcal, which is a bacterial infection that can cause meningitis), and Hepatitis A shots. So far he has seemed like his normal self, which is always a relief.
