First month's checkup


Brought Natalie to visit Dr Toh for her first month checkup yesterday.

Her weight is now 3.95kg. Total weight gained since birth would be 1kg, which according to Dr Toh is within expectations. She is 55cm tall, and this is considered tall for a baby in her category (75th percentile) proving Dr Watt's initial estimation based on bone growth rate.

She had taken her 2nd dose of Hyp B injection with tears and screams, and Dr Toh had to remediate with loads of cajoling in order for her to be forgiven.

Hi Natalie, you've passed your first health assessment with flying colours, but the doctor did mention that you are an assertive baby who verbalises your likes and dislikes. I fully agree with her observations. You are definitely an attention seeker and may be impatient at times. Daddy and I will need to think about how to refine that temper of yours =).

Ps: Whilst writing this.. you are screaming atop your lungs insisting to be cuddled.
