Yesterday you had your first set of shots at your 2 month doctor appointment. I was pretty worried about how you would do and how I would do. Especially because Dad was out of town for work, so I had to take care of you all on my own. You did really well though! Of course you did cry when you got the shots, and I wasn't able to hold you while you got them, but as soon as I picked you up from them you calmed down. The doctor told me not to give you tylenol unless you absolutely needed it in because it can minimize the effectiveness of the shot. Fortunately you didn't get a fever so we didn't need any tylenol. You have slept a lot for the past two days a result of the shots though. I think in total you have probably only been awake for about 4 hours in the last 36.
The doctor said that you are growing and progressing wonderfully. Currently you weigh 12 lbs 10 oz and are 22 1/2 inches long. Your head circumference is 15 1/2 inches. So that puts you in the 75th percentile for weight 50th percentile for height and 20th percentile for head circumference. Since you put on almost 4 lbs the doctor did say you were gaining weight a little too quickly, but I think you are just perfect! Anyway, I guess that means no bigger bottles for you!
