Back on the Charts!!

Back on the Charts
-----------


I think I was a bad Mommy and forgot to post Preston's 9 months stats and therefore you probably don't know that Preston has fallen off the charts in weight due to his highly active lifestyle...so here they are


Height: 28 1/2 (5oth percentile)

Weight: 16lbs 8 oz (less than 5th percentile)
Head: 18 3/4 (90th percentile)



The weight number really concerned the Dr and therefore we were put on a new eating regimen.....stuff the kid until he won't eat anymore or till he spits up after every meal....What fun! Our carpet is not the happiest with all of it's new stains, but the Dr is now happy--Preston is BACK ON THE CHARTS!!!! After 6 weeks of this new "diet" Preston gained a whopping 2 lbs...and is now at 18lbs 9 oz....and at the 10th Percentile for weight....YEAH!!! Per Dr's orders, we are too keep up with the "stuffing" approach until a year....Oh boy!

Hey Jen,
Just so you don't feel bad- Maveric has always been 5th percentile for weight and at 21 months is only 21 and a half pounds. The kid eats a ton but is active and has a high metablolism.
Granted he was only 6 pounds at birth, but still... some kids are just tall and skinny! Preston is adorable!
Take care,
Alisa
