Alana had her one month checkup, with her new pediatrician.

She’s gained almost 2 full pounds (she weighed in at 9lbs (4082 grams)), and 2 full inches longer (now a whopping 21″ (53 cm)). Her head circumference measured 15″ – all told, this put her in the 50th percentile for weight, 50th percentile for length, and between 90th and 95th percentile for head circumference… must be a big brain in there!

Her pediatrician seemed pleased with her growth and overall health.

She also got her first shot today. She was none-too-pleased, but recovered quickly. We go back in a month for the next round of vaccinations, 4 in all – the doctor said he’d give her Tylenol before they do them… I’m guessing she’ll be less than pleased at these shots as well.
