Cooper had his 4 month wellness appointment today and he is doing great! He is in the 95th percentile for height at 26 3/4 inches, the 90th percentile for weight at 16 pounds 11 ounces, and the 75th percentile for head circumference at 43 centimeters.
The doctor said that we can start introducing solid foods, beginning with rice cereal; but said it's perfectly okay not to until he reaches 6 months. We may start experimenting soon to see if he's ready for it.
Cooper did pretty well with his shots. He got 3 vaccinations, 2 shots and a drink. He did great with the drink as it probably tastes better than the vitamin D supplement he takes at home. I actually thought he wasn't going to cry after getting his shots because he didn't cry at all with the first shot, but once he got the 2nd shot, he broke out into a cry! However, I scooped him up to console him and after a few seconds, he wasn't crying at all. What a brave baby boy!!
