Annabelle is 21.154 lbs, basically at 22 and is 28.5 inches long. I really expected her to weigh more than that, at least 25. She was above average and in the upper 80th low 90th percentile for everything, including size of her head. She had her finger pricked for an iron test and didn't even flinch or cry or anything. She just watched the lady prick her finger and try and get blood out. For whatever reason her blood did not flow very well. I have low iron but I continue to take prenatals so hopefully her iron is okay. She is still breast feed with only a little baby food, we will find out her iron levels on Monday if they are low.
Comparing her 9 month stats to mine I was 24.3 lbs and 28 inches long so I was a little heavier and half an inch shorter :)
Annabelle showed off her personality a little bit to the doctor, nurses and everyone else there. She blew raspberries at the doctor as he was listening to her heart, tried to steal the stethescope and then she growled at him. I didn't really know what to do except look at Jason and laugh.
We have no more shots until 15 or 18 months, depending on when we want to do the MMR. We are also putting off the Chicken Pox vaccine until Annie goes to school to see if she can catch it herself. That may seem harsh but I would rather she have a natural immunity.
