BM had his four month appointment today. He got a clean bill of health! He's still a little guy-he weighs 11 pounds 14 ounces and is 23 inches long. This put him in the 5% for both height and weight.
Doctor A asked if we had any concerns and I told him that BM is very fussy. During the exam BM was very compliant and even seemed to be enjoying himself. It wasn't until seconds after that the doctor witnessed first hand what I meant by fussy.
Then to make matters worse, our regular nurse came in with another nurse who is in training. The nurse in training pulled out the needles for his immunizations. In my mind I realized that everyone starts out new and needs experience but in my heart I didn't want my baby to be poked by a rookie. Fortunately, the nurse did just fine and BM survived.

Did the doctor give you any advice? You know diet alterations, changing his routine, or tranquilizers?
Don't you wish you were one of those mean, bossy moms that the doctors hate? That way, they would never let those trainer nurses near your child for fear of how you'd react. That's my plan for Jake's next appointment......
That is cute! He is still little indeed but he is growing! He is a cutie!!! (that is fussy) In the picture of the doctor with the stethoscope on BM, BM has a fist and he looks like he is going to slug him and say, "That is cold! Take That off of me now!! Or I will Tell on YOU!!!" (just kidding =>)
Goodness our boys are so different in poundage!! He's not fussy, he just know what he wants, wants it NOW, and can't tell you:)
