18 months check up

We had it this morning along with the 18 month needle, she cried for the needle but ended up being more upset when I took away the crayons and pencils afterwards

She is HUGE!!
Chub: 11.5kg she is on the 50th%ile
Tallness: 77.5 (ok not that tall 10th%ile)

She is thinning out more now so will probably balance out her weight and height over the next few months.

Cough is ever present and Dr listened to the usual cracks and pops :roll: she did a lovely cough for him as well, eye's popped out of his head.. ah yes it was "normal" for her. He seemed to really just went "oh"... because I spoke to him in medical terms as to what it was, what was the possible cause it and the treatment we are following

She has some Eczaema on the back of one of her legs, has only just appeared in the last few days, once again I had already started treating it with Dermaid, he said perfect Was no surprise when it came up as I had infantile eczaema and DH has dermotitis and I have psoriosis!

He asked about walking etc, explained the hypermobility and went through everything she had achieved in the last few months, thanks to weekly physio, so once again all going along nicely.

He was happy with her talking, she said "ta" when he gave her something and she asked him for some for "cheese" (teese), and happily sat there

Lucky for us it was bulk billed, as it wouldn't have been any point paying seeing as I seemed to have already been diagnosing and treating everything myself!!!

So IMHO dear little Miss is pretty darn "average"
