18 month check-up
Emma had her 18 month check up, and really there were no big surprises. She is REALLY long for her age (78 %) but REALLY tiny in terms of weight (2 %) . She only weighs about 20 lbs!! The doctor was not too concerned, however, because of a couple of things. 1) I was small. I was only 13 lbs. when I was one. Ellie was small. It's genetic to a point. 2) She is growing...She is just growing up up up instead of around. 3) She has great mobility and her developmental milestones are right on track. So....All in all we have a very small, very tall, very healthy little peanut. I must say I am used to it, with all of the issues with Ellie's weight in the past. Would I prefer that my girls have a little more meat on them? Sure. Of course. But as long as they are thriving and healthy there isn't much more I can ask for. I have no doubt that baby # 3 will be the same in terms of size. I make 'em small, what can I say? Small, tough, and hyper. Watch out world!
