Fifteen Month Check-Up

Peyton had his 15 mo. check-up this past Thursday. He is 21 pounds, 10 ounces and 30 3/4 inches long. His growth is now remaining steady, for which I am very grateful. At his 1 yr. check-up the dr. was a little concerned because he had fallen lower in the percentages. At one time his weight was at 90-95% and now it is between 10 & 25%. She and I were both glad to see it holding steady.

He escaped getting any shots because the virus he has been fighting for 3 wks. produced an ear infection in one ear. Because he was still congested at the appointment she didn't want to let it possibly get worse so she gave him a prescription for antibiotics. Hopefully it will be cleared up soon.

Although he escaped the shots last week, he'll have to go back next week for a follow-up ear check and to get the immunizations. He'll love that!

Good for Peyton! I'm glad he's weight is back up. I'm sorry he is still sick, though. Poor little guy!
