We got A her one year appt today. She is doing great on the multiple skill sets. For the height she is about 40% and for the weight she is about 20%. The office was kind of put out that I asked if they were using the WHO breastfed baby growth chart. They went and found one, and then decided that it really was worth it since on the formula chart she is below the charts. Overall she is doing great they said, and were also very pleased to see a baby.
When they took her iron levels and picked her fingers she didn't flinch or cry. The nurse had asked 2 other nurses in for help with A since apparently babies tend to cry. They were all quite shocked when A reacted as she did, apparently teenagers have been known to pass out with the drops of blood they see. I talked about the blood and how it is really cool amazing stuff as the finger stick came out.
