Wyatt's 4 Month Check Up

Wyatt had his 4 month checkup on Tuesday. Everything was fine with Wyatt except for his lack of weight gain but the doctor is not concerned since he is taking in enough fluids and he is now starting with food - rice cereal and then on to the fruits, then veggies, and maybe some meats.

Here's the tale of the tape for Wyatt:

Length: 25 3/4 in - 80th Percentile (+1.5in from 2 month appointment)
Weight: 13lbs 6oz - 25th Percentile (+1lb 2oz from 2 month appointment)
Head: 16.5 in - 50th Percentile (+.5in from 2 month appointment)

Aubrey's stats at 2 months:

Length: 25 ¾ in - 95th Percentile
Weight: 14lbs 11oz – 75th Percentile
Head: 15in – 20th Percentile

It is amazing how long Wyatt seems to be but he is the same length as Aubrey was at 4 months. The difference is the extra 1lb 5oz the Aubrey was carrying. It made Aubrey look like a linebacker that never missed a meal and Wyatt looks like a bean pole. We give Wyatt some protein shakes and starting morning and evening workouts to add some weight and help him with his head control and arm strength. Wyatt is close to rolling over but can't get his arm from underneath him. Hopefully, it won't be much longer.
