4 Month Check-Up

Aubrey had her check-up today, and according to the doctor everything looks great. He thinks she is a little overweight, but we think she is just right!

Weight: 13lb 3.8oz (between the 25 and 50 percentile)
Height: 25in (between the 50 and 75 percentile)
Head Circumference: 15 3/4in (between the 10 and 25 percentile)

While we were waiting for the doctor, Aubrey rolled over twice, but of course when I tried to capture it on video she stopped...stinker!

She was happy until it came to shots...poor girl screamed, but fell asleep in the car and took a good, long nap.

Natalie was good overall during the appointment, but got a little whiny at times when the attention wasn't on her.

Aubrey is running a low fever tonight...I'm sure from the shots.

The doctor said to start adding cereal to her milk, so I guess more pumping for me...yippee!...to try and decrease the amount of spit-up. Other than that and medicine, he didn't say much else about it, so I imagine he thinks Aubrey will just eventually outgrow this.  He also said to start her on cereal. I tried after her nap and she loved it and ate all of it; however, when I tried this evening, she wanted nothing to do with it...maybe because of her fever?!

The doctor also said to start with food, but I think we'll wait a little bit for the food. As far as sleeping through the night, he basically said the cereal should help, but I will believe that when I see it because when we did that with Natalie it didn't change anything.
