9 Month Well Visit and Feeling Better


Scarlett is doing better. She is still teething but her fever is much better and she seems to be feeling better overall. This morning we had her 9 month well visit with Dr. Clapp. Scarlett is 28" long (about 70th percentile), 18 lbs 7 oz (about 40th percentile), and 17" head (30th percentile). She is a little light right now since she hasn't been eating as much as usual (likely due to feeling crappy). These pictures are of Scarlett and her carrot juice. She loves carrot juice and loves her sippy cup but we sort of got scolded today about giving her juice. I guess even if it is no sugar added it isn't a great idea to give them juice because you want them to focus on milk or water. She was disappointed I guess that we haven't been giving her formula in her sippy cup. Sigh. It just seems like a lost cause because only a small portion would get down her throat. Oh well, maybe after we get done traveling this month we'll give it a try. We leave in the morning for Miami so it isn't really on our radar right now. Anyway, besides that, everything is fine and Scarlett doesn't mind the doctor since they gave her a tongue depressant for her to play with. Whatever works!
