See how she grows...2 month and 4 months stats

We had Ripley's 4 month visit earlier this week (can you believe it?), and I thought I should post her stats and go back and do the ones from her 2 month visit.

4 months

weight - 12 bl 8 oz (23rd percentile)

height/length - 24.33 inches (52nd percentile)

head - 86th percentile

2 months

weight - 10 lb (25th percentile)

height/length - 22.44 inches (49th percentile)

head - 92nd percentile

As you can see, little girl still has a big head. This is one of the things they were concerned about when they were doing sonograms. At one point, they told us they thought she could be a 10 or 11 lb baby at birth, based on her head measurements in utereo. Needless to say, she wasn't (6 lb 11 oz at birth) which has me question modern medicine. I mean, really...with all of our technology, they are that off with their estimates?

She did great with her shots this time - an initial piercing scream like no other sound in the world, but a quick calm-down. The doctor complimented her on being so alert and tracking and following his voice. She's got a killer smile and is quite the flirt. Apparently he sees other 4 month olds who are not quite as lively.
