We went to the doctor on Wednesday for Brynnlee's 4 month check up. She was really sick when we took her in, so her weight went down a little, but I couldn't believe what went up. Here were her stats.
Weight: 11. 53 lbs. Went from the 17th percentile to the 9th (like I said she had been sick all week and wasn't eating much. Before she got sick she was almost 12lbs).
Height: 24.96 inches. Went from the 17th percentile to the 75th. Now I know why she is wearing 9 month clothing. She has been growing like a weed the last few weeks!!
I couldn't believe how much she had grown. She is going to be so tall like her daddy! Everything looked well at the doctor except for her little hips. Since she was a breech baby the doctor has always been concerned and had us watch for hip displatia (where her hip doesn't grow correctly in the socket). Well at this appointment we had some x-rays and her hip is about 1-2 degrees out of place. It doesn't sound like much, but it concerned the doctor enough that we are taking Brynn down to Schriner's Hospital at the beginning of February to have some tests. They said that they might have to splint her legs if their findings are severe, but might also just watch her as she grows if they aren't as concerned. I am hoping that they don't find anything wrong, but we will just have to wait and pray and see.
What a wonder it is to see her grow each month!!!
