Abby had her 18 month check-up with Dr. Hughes on Wednesday,
2/27/13. She weighed approximately 26 ½ pounds
and was 32 ½ inches long. She was in the
80th percentile for both weight and height. Dr. Hughes said she is very well
proportioned, which is good.
It was just Mommy and Abby at the doctor’s office. Mommy was a little nervous because sometimes
Abby isn’t on her best behavior at the doctor’s. However, Abby was so, so good this time. We watched
Doc McStuffin, watched the fish swim, played in the sink with a cup, and laughed
at the kitten picture. There were tears
when the nurses came in to weigh her and give her a shot but besides that she
was so good!
We went through her development and speech with Dr. Hughes
and he was impressed. He thinks she does
NOT have autism (based on a Q&A session) and is developing perfectly. This
is just the routine check-up that checks for this type of stuff. I
already knew this but hearing it from the doctor is very, very nice.
Abbygale got one shot – her second Hep A. I believe she will not have to have any shots
at her next appointment, which will be at 2 years old. Yippee!
The only couple of things to work on is a) getting her to
sleep through the night since she is still up a couple of times each night and
b) getting her to drink less milk (she is only suppose to have about 16 ounces
of milk each day and she is WAY over this amount).
