6 month checkup
Emma got to spend her 6 month birthday with the doctor today. The nurse gave her 4 shots and she only cried for a minute. She is weighing in at 19 lbs 9.75 ozs (96%) and 27 inches long (87%). Her head circumference is now 43 cm (65%).
The doctor is not concerned with her weight or height. We have a healthy girl. We get to start vegetables this weekend & fruit in a couple of weeks!
Around 7.5 months we can have finger food like cheerios, rice, pasta, bananas, peaches out of the fruit cocktail cups & get to go up to stage 2 baby food (that just means the jars are bigger). When we start a new food we will only have that food for 4 consecutive days to make sure Emma is not allergic to it and then we can try a new food plus the previous one.
Our meals will look like this:
In the morning we will have cereal mixed with a little apple juice in it & a formula bottle. Mid-morning a formula bottle if she wants it. For Lunch she will get a jar of baby food and a formula bottle. Mid-afternoon a formula bottle (if she wants it). Dinner she will get a jar of baby food and a formula bottle.
