Huxley's 4 Month Stats

His four month check-up came quickly.  Below are the stats from his check-up.

Weight:  18 lbs, 2.4 oz - 93rd percentile
Length - 26 inches - 80th percentile
Head Circumference - 43 inches - 66th percentile


The check-up helped to reassure us that he is on track.  Unfortunately, he did have a round of vaccines which has caused him to have a slight fever and get a case of the grumps.  Hopefully our happy bouncing boy will reappear tomorrow.  

His next check-up and round of vaccines will be at six months.  Below is a rundown of what the pedatrician will be checking for in two months.  Many of these things Huxley is already doing:

  • Babbles
  • Sits with help and balances
  • Grasps rattle and mouths it
  • Recognizes parents
  • Transfers a small object from one hand to the other
  • Smiles, Laughs, Squeals
  • Turns towards sounds
  • Comforts self without assitance from adult or pacifier
