James went to the Doctor today for his 4 month evaluation (almost a month late...as he was nearly a month premature we are scheduling to be in line with his full term date). His stats were:
Head: 39 1/2 cm
Height: 24 in
Weight: 14 lb 10 oz
So he is still hugging the bottom of the curve for all but weight, where he is in the 25% (yay mama milk!). Considering he was at the extreme bottom of the curve at birth, he is growing quite nicely!
We have decided not to continue vaccinating him until we are finished with the elimination diet to ensure the vaccine fillers are not foods he is allergic to. We are already following a selective and delayed schedule and he will only be given one vaccine at a time for the vaccines we are choosing to give him. I do not want to overwhelm his developing immune system, especially given that it is already showing signs of overactivity due to his apparent allergies.

Never heard the term "well visit" before.
thanks for jumping in becs! they call it a well visit becasue he wasn't sick- he was 'well', though still going to the dr.
babies (actually children) have "well visits" to the doctors to check how they are growing/developing, etc. at certain intervals (just in case anne hasn't explained it yet)
