Jet turned 6 months old on Friday. He is doing so well. Just an update on how he is doing. We went to the doctor today and he is as normal as can be . He has a little thrush in his mouth, but that is it. Here are his stats.
Weight: 17.5 lbs 51%tile
Height: 27.5 in 83%tile
Head Circ: 17.5 in 69%tile
He used to be near the 90th percentile for weight, and I asked the doctor about that, he said it is normal for breastfed babies to be leaner and that he is doing just great. We have started solids (sweet potatoes and rice cereal). I think he enjoys them, but he still prefers nursing over solids. Here are some things about Jet that we love:
He rolls from back to side
He loves being surprised
He can find the tag on any toy and loves to play with it more than the toy itself
Loves to jump in his jumperoo
Grabs at anything and tries to put it in his mouth, even if it is your entire face :)
Does the cutest shy smile
Babbles while sticking his tongue through his lips
Sleeps around 10 hours a night and 3 naps during the day varying in length 45 min-2 hours
Sits up on his own for brief periods
He loves music and gets excited and intense when I play music on the stereo.
No teeth yet
Loves to play with his feet
Getting stronger on his tummy and I foresee him scooting in the near future.
Eats (nurses) 4-5 times a day (one feeding includes sweet potato and another rice cereal)
He has a mommy, daddy, and family that adore him!
Happy Half Birthday!
