4 Month Check Up

Keldan went to the doctors today to get his 4 mth check up. Heres a rundown of whats going on for the little guy:

*He weighs 17lbs (75 percentile).
*His length is 26 1/2 in (90 percentile). She said I have a tall guy in the making.
*Continue on acid reflux medicine for awhile longer. Starting vitamins now, 1mL a day.
*Start spoon feeding. For the next couple weeks just rice, then can start on baby food. She said either fruits or veggies doesn't matter to her. He can have 1 to 2 Tbl once a day and work up to twice a day. Try one kind at a time. He will still have about 32 oz of formula in a 24hr period.
*Can stand for short period of times (no walkers yet). She feels hes going to be an early crawler and walker. Got my hands full :)
*He got 4 more shots :( Was a good trooper though. Just cried when she poked him and then was ok.
*Goes back in 2 mths for his 6 mth check up.
I think that was all we discussed. Hes growing up so fast!
