We went to the doctor today for Nathan's two-month check-up. I'm proud to say that he is perfectly normal and healthy. He now weighs 12 lbs, 2 oz, which is up 4 lbs from birth. He's basically gained half his birth weight in two months. He falls somewhere between the 50th and 75th percentile. It's the same for his height, at 23 inches tall. His head circumference is more solidly in the 75th percentile. It seems that we make kids with big heads.
The big deal with the two-month appointment is the vaccinations. Nathan got four of them today. He took them about as you'd expect. He cried through all four but was easily comforted when they were over. Now he's sleeping happily on my chest. I'm guessing the sleepiness will continue through the day. Maybe it will mean another good night of many hours of sleep.
And now we don't have to go back for another two months, at the end of January. It's so wonderful getting a normal baby experience this time around!
