Doctor Visit

Molly, Jack, and I went to visit Dr. Havlik for check-ups - Molly her 3 year visit and Jack his 1 year visit.  This is the second time we've done a double visit and I don't know if I'll do it again.  It's a bit crazy!  Plus, Dr. Havlik is so thorough, but with two kids in the room, I think I miss a few things.  Oh well.  They are both good and healthy - Jack for another 3 months and Molly for another year.

Molly's Stats:
  • 32.8 pounds (70th percentile), 37 inches (47th percentile)
  • 16.8 BMI (80th percentile)
  • 88 heart rate
  • 86/58 blood pressure
  • 1st eye exam - with shapes chart, even though she knows her capital letters (cooperated a little bit while covering her left eye, but was done cooperating to cover her right eye)
  • Ear tubes - left ear's tube is out, but the hole has not yet healed - right ear's tube is still there
  • Passed all developmental questions, though I don't really remember what they were
  • Talked about her weird sleeping habits
  • Read books and was pretty well-behaved through most of the appointment

Jack's Stats:
  • 23 pounds 6 ounces (59th percentile), 31 inches (84th percentile)
  • 47 cm head size (68th percentile)
  • 4 Vaccinations including chicken pox vaccine
  • Passed all developmental questions inluding: can point to something, grab a small object with a pincer grasp, clap, say mama or dada, walk, pull himself to standing, etc.
  • I asked about his bow-leggedness and Dr. Havlik said he's fine, don't worry about it
  • Jack was super antsy and a bit grumpy before it was all said and done. 

That's it!
