6 Month Check Up

Today Allyson had her 6th month appointment and last visit with Dr. Ho. She checked out great! A little bit of fluid in her ears still but that sort of seems to be the norm with her. No antibiotics right now but he wrote a script for us to have just in case it develops into something more while we are in the midst of our move. She had to get 4 shots today and she was more unhappy than we have ever seen her. She screamed and cried all the way out the door and all the way to day care....poor baby :( Normally it would have just been the same 3 shots she has been getting but now that she is 6 months she also had to get an H1N1 vaccination. We feel so bad for her but its for her own good. At least now she is finished with shots until she is a year old!

She weighed in at 16 lbs, 12.5 ounces (50th percent) and is 25.25 inches long (25th percent). Her weight gain has started to slow down and she is getting taller/longer so she is working across the growth chart just perfectly. That's what we like to hear! Now to find a new pediatrician in Springfield that can come close to being as wonderful as Dr. Ho....
