Tre had his 2 year check up. I was looking back at his 18 month check up to compare growth and can't believe the changes that have happened over the past 6 months, not so much with actual growth but just looking at pictures of him at 18 months and pictures of him now. He is growing up fast!His measurements are as follows:
Height: 33.5 inches which is in the 27th percentile (his pediatrician questioned this one thinking it wasn't accurate, but they never double checked)
Weight: 26.11 pounds which is in the 33rd percentile
Head: 52 cm which is in the 97th percentile (he moved from 94th last time back to 97th)
A new measurement on the list this time was...
Body Mass Index, which was 17 and is 50th percentile
He gained 2 pounds in the past 6 months but according to their height recording he only grew 0.5 inches, which I still feel like the measurement was off a bit. It's hard with such a wiggly kid to get a unmoving measurement but it's all we had to go on. His head grew 2 centimeters.
His pediatrician said he is growing well and developing wonderfully! He did end up getting a shot which I wasn't expecting because I thought he didn't get any shots at his 2 year check up but he did need 1. Poor kid, I don't like shots and especially don't like when they give them to him. He tries to be so tough but it hurts him and he cried pretty hard once he accepted that it hurt him. He now moves from drinking whole milk to 2% milk which will be much easier for all of us so we can just buy 2% for all of us instead of having to buy one for him and one for us and hope that we finish it all before it goes bad.
The picture I posted with this post was actually taken the day after his appointment but thought I would add a pic for comparison sake. :)
