Gavin had his four month appointment on Friday. After he screamed last time, I begged Taylor to go with me to this one. We even got Gavin a sucker for afterwards to take his mind off of his shots. Lucky for us, the doctor discovered that he had another ear infection in his left ear. This is the same ear that he failed his hearing tests in when he was born. She said that we need to be very careful and watch his hearing closely, as she was worried about the chronic nature of his ear infections, and his failed hearing tests. We go back in two weeks to see if it's better. This is his third round of antibiotics for ear infections. If it's not better she is going to refer us to an Ear, Nose and Throat doctor. Hopefully we won't have to meet the nice doctor! Here are his four month milestones and favorites:
Height: 25.25 60th percentile
Weight: 14.06 lbs 37th percentile
Head Circum: 15.75 5th percentile
He is gaining weight! After the last appointment (he was in the 26th percentile), we were worried he was a little guy. I don't know where his tiny head came from...mom and dad both have rather good sized heads!
Here are a few of Gavin's Favorites:
Nicknames: Gav, Gman, Gavini, MisterMister, Little Man
Toys: His rattle, his exersaucer (he loves to stare and hit the bird on it!) He loves his Baby Einstein videos.
Dislikes: being in more than one place for longer than five minutes, going to sleep (he fights it every time), taking naps (seriously...this one sucks!), pureed peas, when nobody is paying attention to him.
Likes: Going to bed at 5 or 6pm, rice cereal and sweet potatoes, reading books, cuddling when he is tired, putting his mom and dad's fingers in his mouth, waking up at 5:30am, riding in the car and looking at other babies.
Milestones: He sits up very well nowadays and always tries to sit up when laying down, especially when he is getting his diaper changed, he started on solids, first rice cereal and now we are dabbling in vegetables, he is a master at grasping his toys and putting them straight into his mouth!
