Leah had her one month check up at the pediatrician the other day. She did great! Little Birdie weighed in at 9 lbs, 12 oz. She grew an inch and a half, and is now 21 1/2 inches long. That put her smack dab in the middle for her age, as she is in the 55th percentile for both. Her teeny head was a shock! Looks like Leah got blessed with a nice small head, and not the Pankow cabesa! The circumference was in the 25th percentile. I am thrilled that it seems she has NOT inherited my huge gourd. Haha.
The doctor said Leah has amazing muscle tone and holds her head up and bears leg weight much much better than most one month olds. She thinks she will sit up and crawl early, and said to watch her closely for rolling over in the next month. Ahh! We were also told she follows objects better and is more alert than most kiddos at 4 weeks. Looks like she may have inherited her father's brain, after all! :)
Best of all, the pediatrician said she is very healthy, and seems happy and content. We are so blessed to have our HEALTHY baby girl!
