We finally got Susanna in to the doctor for her 15 month check-up. Dr Antall said we’d keep an eye on her bow-legged, pigeon toed walking. He noticed that it’s her left foot in particular that pronates in. If she hasn’t straightened out by 18 months, we’ll probably see a specialist about a special shoe or something. Otherwise, Susie did really well. She didn’t even cry until her third and final shot! She may be several pounds behind her older siblings, but check out how much more hair she has than Elizabeth did at this age!
Susanna at 15 months:
Height: 31-1/4 inches (68%)
Weight: 19.15 lb (3%–somehow, the doctor told me this was 24 percentile, but my online calculator disagrees. In any case, she’s holding steady.)
Head Circumference: 18 inches (the same as last time–maybe she measured wrong last time) (41%)
Elizabeth at 15 months:
Height: 31 inches (60%)
Weight: 23 lbs 14 oz (63%)
Head: 47 cm (75%)
Tommy at 15 months:
Height: 31 3/8 inches (50%)
Weight: 26 lbs (50-75%)
She is too cute, especially with those curls and dimples!
Susanna looks so much older than Lizzie and Tommy at the same age!
Her curls are to-die-for. Hope the foot thing works itself out. Evangeline was knock-kneed for a long time but the doctor said it wasn’t a problem unless she was still that way at 5.
On an unrelated note, when I grow up I am going to keep comparative stats and pics of my kids! 🙂
Our pediatrician said the same thing about pigeon toed… Not a concern unless it is causing the kid stress or if it is still obvious at 5. Apparently most kids have something similar. She’s adorable. I love her curls!! I also agree with mom miller… She does look so much oldr. Must be the hair! 🙂
