Toren had his 6 months doctor’s visit on Friday.
New stats:
- weight = 18lbs 10 ounces (75th percentile)
- height = 27 inches (75th percentile)
- head circumference = I forget the number, but it was 60th percentile
By all counts he’s healthy (had 1 minor cold so far). He is reaching for everything, is almost instantly bored with it once he has it, and loves to drop stuff to our tile floor, especially if it makes loud sounds.
I do have an advice request for all the parents out there. As you’ll see in the upcoming videos, Toren is now a “solid” food eating machine. Our pediatrician, once she found out he was digging solid food, recommended we bump him up to three meals a day over the next couple months. We also need to find some food for him that is high in protein so he’ll have a balanced diet once he is weaned from breast milk (another 6 months or so). As vegetarians, we’d prefer to avoid meat. So, if anyone out there has baby food recommendations for high protein dishes sans meat, we’d really appreciate them.
