4 Month Appt

Eva is 13lbs 14oz and 24 inches long. She is in the 50th percentile for height, weight, and head circumference. She had the same booster shots that she had at two months. Luckily, the after effects were not as bad as at 2 months. At 2 months, she cried for four hours and it was obvious she was in pain. Last night she mainly slept and we even had a couple of smiles out of her. She did have a fever this morning when I left for class. Hopefully that will go away within 24 hours. The doctor gave us a prescription for her cold since it still is sticking around. She also couldn't check Eva's ears because she has some "man wax" as my dr called it. So Eric and I need to buy some ear wax drops to try to break up the wax.

Eva is allowed to start rice cereal according to the doctor, though the literature she gave us said she shouldn't start till 5 months. Who knows :) Eric and I will probably start her but not necessarily make it a daily thing for a couple of weeks. It's an exciting milestone, though I think it will be a messy one.

The doctor also seemed surprised that Eva was not rolling yet stomach to back, so I guess we will have to have more tummy time!
