A 3 Year Old Well Child...

Today was William's 3 year well child exam. He woke up last night with Croup again so the timing was perfect. He is back on Prednisone for 3 days and will hopefully feel better quickly. He is meeting or exceeding all the developmental milestones and we talked about his lack of variety in his diet these days. He is so finicky lately with what he will or won't eat. He is definitely growing though, so I don't think it's affecting him at all! At 2 years he was 36.5 inches tall and he is now 39.25 inches! Wow. That puts him in the 84th % for height. He weighed 30 pounds at 2 years and that has become 37 pounds which puts him in the 91st % for weight. I still wonder about the weight a little. At 2 years he sat on the baby scale and now he is standing on the big kid scale so I wonder if one, or both were a little off. He doesn't seem like he has gained 7 pounds this year. Thankfully there were no shots or pokes at all today, and Dr Rahman and I discussed the new baby and what to expect with his birth. All in all a good visit....
