Okay, well then. Developmentally she is great, but her growth charts are not. Last time she was seen for a checkup she was in the 95% for height and weight. This time she was in the 70% for height and the 25% for her weight. So, she had to get blood work done for anemia and whatever other bloodwork scans they run on toddlers when they have a major weight % jump like this. The Doctor said that when something is wrong they see the weight drop, then the height, then the head circumfrence. If that happens then there is something wrong. I'm trying not to worry too much. They are supposed to call me this week with the results. She also had, in addition to bloodwork, 4 shots. Poor baby was poked for over an hour! :sadeyes
She is only 28.5 inches and 19 lbs so we won't be able to turn that carseat to forward facing anytime soon either. I knew she was tiny too. Everyone always thinks she is only 6 or 9 months old.
She's napping right now and will probably hate me when she wakes up. :(
