2 Month Appt

Even though she was only 7 weeks old, Isabella had her 2 month appt. We had it early because the doctor wanted us to get her shots taken care of before we went to Florida. So, on 2/15 she got all that taken care of, even though we were nervous because we were flying the following day and didn't know how she would react. Luckily, she didn't seemed phased by the whole experience. She screamed and screamed when she got the shots, but calmed down pretty quickly after that.

Here were her stats:

Height: 22 1/4 '' (50th percentile)
Weight: 10 lbs 6 1/2 oz (45th percentile)
Head: 14 3/4 '' (25th percentile)

Our only other concern was the amount of spit up she always has (ever notice she has to be constantly wearing a bib?). The doctor said that if it doesn't seem to be bothering her, it should be okay. She said I could add a little rice cereal to a bottle for her to help keep it down, but that would basically be more for our benefit than hers, so I don't think we are going to mess around with that.

You may want to show these sites to your pediatrician, re: suggesting cereal at the age of two months:
