9 Month Check Up

Yesterday Mila went to her 9 month doctor visit. She weighs 19.4 pounds, putting her just slightly above average. Although our wiggle worm was very hard to measure (especially since she wet the table during the exam!), the nurse said she's in the 50th percentile for height at 27.5 inches. She was going to get blood drawn for lead testing, but they couldn't find a good vein in her chubby little arm. After all the poking and pinning down during the attempt at blood work, we discovered a rash on her arm which the doctor thinks is due to a latex allergy. We'll try to test her again at her 12 month appointment, latex free!
