Rowan's Stats

At Rowan's 4 month check up today:

Weight: 13 lb 8 oz (36th percentile)
Height 24.5 inches (52nd percentile)
Head measurement 17.2 inches (91st percentile)

(percentile: Where he would place if compared to 100 normal children his age... 50%tile is the middle, 97%tile is the tallest)

His head measurement went from the 71st percentile at his last appointment to the 91st percentile. The Dr said this is most likely due to the shape of his head. He is developing a flat spot on the back of his head, so we need to make sure he spends a lot more time on his tummy, and encourage him to look to the left instead of right. He needs to go back in one month to make sure this corrects the problem.

Development and growth are good. He seems to be doing all the things he is supposed to be doing now!

Rowan did NOT like shots!
