Parker had his first check up on Wednesday (9/17) and it went great. He did not enjoy being stripped naked and even peed on the nurse. He gained back all of his birth weight that he had lost (11 ozs.) plus 2 ozs. putting him at an even 9 pounds. He measured a lot longer at the doctor so we think he was longer than 20 inches at birth. The doctor had him at 21 1/2 inches long. His weight is in the 95th percentile, length 90th percentile and head circumference was off the charts (just like his daddy).
I was very happy with the doctor and his check up. I was a little nervous about taking him to our family doctor instead of a pediatrician but I feel like it is going to be fine.
