Nine Month Doctors Visit

Dr. Clifford and you had a date today. You have a cold/cough/feverish temp sort of bug (probably from your sore mouth). You are also cutting your top k-9 teeth. This will make a whopping 10 teeth in your little mouth. And soon to follow will be you bottom k-9 as I can see them in your gum. The doc mentioned that you are a really early teether, but we already knew that. I am so sorry you have such a hard time with teething, but we will get through it with lots of ice cubes, Motrin, Tylenol, and mommy and daddy kisses...;)

You weighed in at 24.8 pounds, a little over 30 inches in height, and your head circumference is 18 3/4 inches. You are 99th % in each measurement. Once again, we were told how you were a really big baby BUT even though you are high on the charts for your age. You are totally in proportion for your weight to height ratio and head ratio. Basically for your height you are perfect in weight. Its just that you are big healthy for your age. No worries kiddo, both of your parents were big babies. I love it!

Thank you for being such a sweet little girl. Now one favor to ask of you my darling...Will you sleep all the way through the night for mommy! I would be so excited...like "I will give you chocolate ice cream" excited. xoxo my sweet thing.

"Sleep through the night!! Come on mom! I need my midnight snack!"
