9 Month Dr. Visit

Good Morning,
Carter had his nine month well visit at 10:30 this morning. He was wonderful!!! Usually at the dr, we have to fight to get him to sit still... he sat very still and listened to Dr. Shani, she kept saying how wonderful, sweet and charming he was! go Carter!!!!
Everything looked good at the visit...
He was 20.14 lbs  in the 60th percentile... Shani said that about the time that they start to get really active  they stop gaining weight so quickly, so she said his weight looks great
He was 30 inches long (as long as the tape measure what are they going to use now???? )
90th percentile for length. He is going to be a basketball star!!!
His head circumference was 44cm. Average size :)

I asked her about the white bump on his penis. She said that is an inclusion scar. Sometimes when a circumcision is healing a small cluster of cells forms . She said that sometimes it goes away, but if not it shouldn't bother him at all... she said that it is pretty common and shouldn't cause any problems.

His heart and lungs and nose and ears and throat and stomache all looked great. He is a very happy, healthy growing boy. With a lot of supunk that " is going to wear you out " - Shani.

All in all it was a great visit!
Shots next visit (12 month)  :(
