4 Month Stats

Chillin' with Curious George

Ready for church

Bumbo time!
At our doctor's appt on Monday, October 11, 2010 we got an update on Khalil's stats. His head is 16 3/4 (50%), length 24 1/2 inches (30%) and weight 16.3 lbs (70%). This was the worst doctor's appt ever. Khalil started screaming before the doctor could exam him. He was no where near shots and was screaming already. I have no idea what was wrong with the kid. Maybe he knew what was coming. I bounced him and held him while trying to talk to the doctor and he just kept going nonstop. I was quite shocked. He had been such a trooper last time. I finally got him quiet before the nurse came in. But of course when she stuck him not 1, not 2, not 3, but 4 times, his screaming resumed. "Goodness gracious," was all I could say. Furthermore, the doctor said he could start cereal. He has been so interested in our food that I was happy to hear this news. So the next day I fed him some rice cereal around 5 or 6pm. He was up screaming all night long. I'm pretty sure I saw every hour on the clock. He finally used the bathroom at around 10am this morning. My conclusions are that he had a major stomachache and possible constipation. I'm still awaiting a call back from the doctor. I have decided that his digestive system isn't ready for cereal and we will try again at 5 months. Needless to say I didn't go to work, which is why I have time to blog.
