Baby stats!
Sadie had her four month well-baby visit yesterday. Woo-hoo! She’s 13 pounds 14 ounces and 25 inches long, which puts her at the 50th and 75th percentiles, respectively. So it isn’t my imagination--she really *is* putting it all into getting taller. She’s hitting all of her milestones handily and has been cleared to start eating real food whenever we feel like starting with her. I’m not in a hurry, but I think she is, since she keeps trying to grab her daddy’s dinner.
And that’s about it. She didn’t tolerate the shots as well as last time, but she slept great last night once she finally slept. Now if she’ll actually nap today we’ll be in good shape, I think.
Oh, and the doc seemed very impressed with how well we’ve done with breastfeeding, which was a nice salve for my ego, especially considering how little I actually like it. I got the feeling we’re a relative rarity in having succeeded in giving her nothing but breastmilk for 4 months. And you know what? It may be natural, but it’s hard frigging work and I appreciate the appreciation something fierce.
