Angela's one-year old check up

Angela went to see Dr. Wei for her one-year old check up on Dec. 7. As usual, the nurse measured Angela's length (30 1/檢查拼字8 inches / 76.5 cm), weight(17lbs 11.5oz/8.04kg) and head circumference (17.5 inches/ 44.5cm), which are in the 75 percentile, 10 percentile and 30 percentile in the growth chart, respectively. While Mommy is concerned about Angela's low weight, Dr. Wei said that he is quite satisfied with Angela's overall growth and development. He thinks Angela is healthy and normal and there is no need to worry about her weight as long as Angela keeps eating and keeps active. Meanwhile, Dr. Wei suggested Mommy wean off nighttime feeding and help Angela sleep through the night from now on. It is not only good to establish Angela's sleeping habit but also prevents her from dental cavities.


At the end, Angela was given three shots, the MMR against mumps, the vaccine against the flu, and the vaccine against the swine flu (H1N1). From the video, you can hear that Angela was crying aloud when the nurse gave her shots. Poor sweetie.
