6 Month Well Visit

Emmy had her 6 month well visit at the doctor today, and everything went "well".


She weighs 15 pounds 4 ounces (34th percentile); is 26 inches long (55th percentile); and head is 17 inches (69th percentile).  We were a little surprised to hear the size of her head.  Doesn't she know she's part of the little head family (Mommy, Daddy, and Reese all have small heads)?!?

Emmy continues to be ahead on development.  Dr. Bryan was surprised she can sit up so well on her own and how social Emmy was by smiling, reaching for things, and interacting with the doctor and nurses.

The only negative part of the visit was her 4 immunizations.  But, she handled them very well, and seemed the most upset with the fact she was being held down.  I'm also happy to report that she was good natured and did not spike a fever this time after her shots.  So nice!! 

Dr. Bryan said Emmy is one of the cutest babies she's ever seen, and, in her words, "And I see a lot of babies!"  She even brought another doctor in our room just to admire Emmy's cuteness.  :)
