4 month checkup!

Well we headed to Landon's 4 moth check up and everything looks good for the most part...we'll get to that in a bit.  He is a BIG baby and I've always known that; however, it is a healthy BIG.   He weighed 17 lbs. 15 oz and is 27 inches long.  The doctor said he is not overweight by any means.  His height and weight match up perfectly.  Since he is so long that plays a huge role in his weight.  He is in the 95th percentile for weight and 98th percentile for height.  He is continuing to meet all his milestones and we got approval to start cereal even though we have already been doing it the last 2 days.  


So.... now for the most part.  The doctor is still concerned about his head and his flat spot on the back.  Dr. Steinke said it is getting better but still has a ways to go.  She scheduled us an appointment with the Omaha Children's Hospital for a consultation at the beginning of August.  The appointment will last for 2 hours and we will meet with a nurse, a doctor and a therapist.  If they feel the need for him to wear a helmet then they will do all the scans while we are there too.  Makes me kind of sad, but I would rather do it now because she said it is harder to fix when he gets older.  I am very happy though, that we are blessed with a healthy little baby!
