Evelyn's 4 month appt


Evelyn had her 4 month appointment a few weeks ago. The doctor said it looks like Evelyn is doing very well. I asked her about her odd headshape and her drooping left eye. The doctor didn't seem too concerned and said we'd take a look again at 6 months. She said Evelyn's head is quite asymmetrical and that might make one eye look bigger than the other.

Here are her stats:

Height 25 inches (80th percentile)
Weight 14 lbs (60th percentile)
Head 16.25 inches (70th percentile)

She got all her shots and didn't do very well with them. We got a call later in the day from daycare requesting that we come get her because she had been miserable. In a strange coincidence, someone was picking up their son at the same time and told the teachers he wouldn't be in tomorrow because he had his 4 month appt, would be getting shots, and they didn't want to put the teachers through that. I just kind of looked at the teachers and smiled and left with Evelyn. It never crossed my mind that she'd have a bad reaction. She ended up being fussy for a few days afterward so we took her back to the chiropractor. It was my first time to witness the chiropractor with Evelyn and it really seemed to relax her quite a bit.

Evelyn's not rolling over yet, but I think she's getting close. She holds her head up high and likes to sit up more (supported). She is also constantly full of smiles!

This weekend we've noticed a little tooth poking through on the bottom. It is quite sharp and she's pretty sensitive about it.
