Joel's 8 Month Check Up

Today Joel had his 8 month check up with the child health nurse, this was the first available appointment after Christmas.

he will be 9 months in 6 days and he weighs 8170 gms and is 71.5cm long. So he is now down to the 10% with his weight. The CHN is a little concerned about this so we need to fatten him up or at least get to the stage he has a steady increase in weight gain instead of a plateau.

He is doing all the right things though, getting ready to crawl (I don't think he is any hurry) and chatting away.

I'm not that concerned, look at all the grief I went through with Eloise and he lack of weight gain and she is just a healthy skinny mini...
