We took Jillian for her 15 months well check on Tuesday. We went to hopefully our last pediatrician in Austin – we are on #4 now.
And guess what??? She is still small!
Length: 28 1/4 inches ( in the 3rd percentile – she is the length of an average 10 month)
Weight: 18 pounds 8 ounces (which is below the chart)
Head: 44.5cm (15th percentile)
But she is going up on her growth chart – ever so slowly – but it is still going in the right direction.
Is she developing okay otherwise? Just a “small” person? Are the doctors concerned about her size? Is there anything that can be done about her size?
BTW, she’s such a cutie!!
Jillian is developing nicely – other than her size. The doctors have not really been concerned or worried she will be a “little person”. She is growing, just doing it slowly. We just need to keep feeding her lots of nutritious food and healthy fats.
