Category: At the Doctors

So Jen called it right – Cora weighed ten pounds eight ounces, she is in the 50th percentile. She is just under the 50th percentile in height (22 1/2) and 75th for head circumference.

Will on the other hand had reached the 75th percentile for all measurements. He is 12 pounds 9 ounces and 23 1/2 inches long. Obviously doing great in all categories. Cora unfortunately still has thrush in her mouth so we are putting medicine on again for a while.

The doctor was very happy with everything. The babes were not so happy with the shots, but they got over it pretty quick. We go back in four weeks.

Cora and Will went for their one month doctor’s appointment yesterday and everything is great. Both are growing like champs! Because they were a little early, they are a little smaller on the normal percentage scale for full term babies, but they are catching up quick. For example, the doctor would have expected a two pound gain in the month, but our babes grew three pounds.

Cora

• 7lbs 13 1/2oz
• 20 inches long

That puts her in the 25%tile for weight and 10%tile for height on the female infant scale.

Will

• 7lbs. 13 3/4oz
• 20 3/4inches long

That puts him in the 15%tile for weight and 25%tile for height on the male infant scale.

Both got their second hep B shot and did fine. We go back in two a month!
