Three Month Check Up

Nico had his three month check up appointment, where he met his new pediatrician. We decided to make a change due to some personal conflicts and after meeting Nico's new doctor, we are so pleased with our decision. Our little boy isn't so little anymore. He now weighs 14.3 lbs and is 23.2 in long. He is in the 54th percentile for his weight and the 11th percentile for his height. In addition to the couple of vaccinations Nico had to have, it seems that our little man, although very healthy, appears to have some acid reflux. He has been having some feeding issues that last month or so, in that he has a hard time eating more than an oz or two without spitting the bottle out of his mouth or batting it away from his face. The suggestion? Nico is now eating rice cereal mixed in with his formula at night in order to help his food digest and sleep better. Another stepping stone for this little tyke!

Here is a picture of Nico downing and greatly enjoying his first helping of cereal.
