Four-month follow-up checkup 第三次體檢

小恩恩滿4個月了，今天到衞生所體檢，順便注射疫苗。這是Angela 回國後，第一次體檢，體檢前還得先領取台北市民健康卡、台北市兒童醫療補助證及兒童健康手冊。 由於這兩個月小恩恩的食量並沒有明顯增加，加上經常拒絕吸奶瓶，使得這次體檢的身高與體重並沒有太大的變動，大約在60公分與6公斤左右，整體發育落在生長曲線的25-50百分位。醫生建議Mommy可以開始為Angela添加副食品，好讓Angela得到足夠的營養，以改善小恩恩拒吸奶瓶的問題。

Angela is about 17-month old and it's time for four-month follow-up checkup. It was the first time she did her checkup in Taiwan, and she also got a City Wellness Card, a Child Medical Subsidization Card, and a Child Health Care Booklet from local government clinic. The checkup process in the clinic was like in the States, the nurse first measured Angela's height, weight and head circumference and ploted her growth chart. Angela's overall growth (23.62 inches , 13.22 lbs) fell to the 25th percentile. Mommy thought it was because Angela has been refusing bottle-feeding recently. Therefore, the doctor advised Mommy to introduce soild food for Angela and hopefully Angela could get enough nutrition and grow well from now on.
