David had his 9 month check up today with Dr. Yu and got flying colors!!!! Dr. Yu was really pleased with how he looks and his development. Happy to see his 5 teeth and said his gums look really healthy and pink. Ears, nose and throat are nice and clear. Loves that he says mama, dada (indescriminately), car (but only after hanging out with Lucas) and was even trying to imitate me saying duck just the day before and even more importantly that he babbles multiple times a day. Holding food in BOTH hands at the same time, banging toys together, picking food up with his finger and thumb, eating only table foods with the exception of the periodic puree that I can ONLY squeeze into his mouth. Sleeping thru the night from 8pm to 7:30-8am plus a ~2hr morning nap and afternoon cat nap. And loves that he's scooting and trying to pull to stand and standing so well PLUS walking with mom and dad. Here are his stats:
Height: 29" (75%)
Weight: 19lbs 13.8oz (50%)
I'm a little concerned about my evening nursing but Dr. Yu thinks it's more likely that David just LOVES eating solids so that he's less interested in nursing at night since he's nursing well during the day. But he's also doing really well drinking water throughout the day and absolutely LOVES his Nuby sippy straw cup. Thanks Lucas for the recommendation!!!
I can't believe that in only 3 months time ... he'll ... be ... a ... toddler!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Eek!!!!! The time has flown by so fast and it's all been so incredibly amazing. We just love our little man and can never seem to get enough of him.
David was being a stinker ... it's the best shot I got!!*UPDATE: After checking out volume of milk produced at night, Dr. Yu said he's not concerned with how much David is getting and to continue on as normal. Yea!!!!!*
