Coby had his one month appointment this past Wednesday with the pediatrician. We were fully expecting to hear that he had already topped eleven pounds and in the 80+ percentile for weight. We were quite surprised to find out he was slightly below average (in the 48th percentile) for weight at only 10lb.1.5oz. (see pic above). This means he is growing right on track and doing just perfect! As for the other measurements: not surprisingly as Alain and I are both average or below average for height, Coby measured in at 21.5 inches which is in the 35th percentile. Finally, his head circumference was in the 48th percentile as well. All in all, Coby's growth is moving along just perfectly! We were very excited! In addition to checking all of his growth marks, Coby received his second dose of vaccinations- he was so brave (I was not~ Alain had to hold him while I stood back). He survived though~ in fact, he only cried for about 2 seconds. As you can see, he continues to grow and change every day. Next doctor's appointment will be at the end of May~ we'll see where he is then!
