I called 3 months ago to schedule Holdyn and Hadley's well baby check ups. The 1st available appointment they had for Hadley was Monday, December 26th and the next available one they had for Holdyn is in February!! I went ahead and scheduled them since they would be late anyways and to not delay them any longer. At the time, I didn't think about Hadley's appointment being the day after Christmas. Robbie is home for the holidays so I was glad that he was able to go with me. She is in the 30th percentile for her weight and height and she is in the 80th percentile for her head (big heads run on my side of the family... from birth and even now, Holdyns head measurment has always been off the charts!). The doctor said her weight and height are fine even though she is tiny for her age. He just said she is perfectly healthy and is just petite so everybody just needs to leave her alone!
They save the worst for last..... the shots. Makes mommy and daddy feel so bad but we know in the long run, it's the best thing for her and will keep her healthy!! Right after the shots, Nurse Lynee pulled out the bubbles (Holdyn calls her the bubble lady!) and after about 15 seconds, Hadley had forgotten about the shots and she was busy catching and popping bubbles!! She doesn't have to go back for a well baby visit until she is 3 and she won't have to get any shots then.. YAY!!!
