Just a quick update. Callen went to the doctor on Tuesday for his baby wellness checkup. Callen is doing great! He now comes in at 16.6 lbs (40 percental for weight) and 28 inches long (95+ percental in height)....meaning he is a tall kid! Dr. Siewert said he looked great and he was right where he is suppose to be...except for his height...he said that is way above average. I am sure it will slow down at some point. He also said that Callenis very advanced for his age with the things that he is doing (sitting up, standing on his own, trying to pull up, crawling). He was very impressed with our little man. He was shocked that he didn't have any teeth yet (since he has been trying since January), he just said they will come when they are ready.
Now to the bigger issue...FOOD. We explained that Callen's tummy just wasn't handling baby food at all. He said that was perfectly normal and fine. That we should try and get him on two veggies in time, but not to rush anything. All the nourishment that he needs comes from milk. He also said no juice or fruit until he gets the veggies down. He also said that some babies just can't handle it and that they won't eat food until it is actual food. We will make a slow process of introducing food to him again in the future.
His shots went fine...he of course cried and I wanted to cry along with him. He soon got over it and just wanted to snuggle all evening and night and the next day. He ran a slight fever...but, seems to be rocking and rolling once again!
Have a glorious weekend!
