Oliver also continues to grow, of course, and is officially in 3-6 month clothing. He also had his 2-month well child visit with the pediatrician on Thursday and we got his stats. He continues to follow his growth curve and is healthy! He had to get four vaccinations: three in the legs and one orally. He screamed and I teared up but tried very hard to hold it together because Eloise was also in the room. Thankfully it passed quickly. One piece of mildly concerning news from that visit is Oliver's head is a bit misshapen on the right side. There's a flat spot on the side and the right side of his forehead sticks out a bit more than the left. I had never noticed. The pediatrician said it's not unusual because their skulls are so soft at this age and he likely favors having his head turned to the right when he's sleeping. She referred him to a physical therapist for further evaluation and recommendations. I felt awful for not even noticing and I really hope it resolves soon! I have been watching him since then and he actually seems to have his head facing both ways equally, so it's confusing. We'll find out more at that appointment hopefully.
Weight: 11 lbs. 10 oz. (33%)
Height: 23.75 in. (83%)
Head circumference: 15.5 in. (59%)
The past couple weeks have been near 100 degrees so we are careful how much time we spend outside. Mornings are cooler so one day we had a picnic breakfast at the park. Oliver seems to enjoy watching his sister and being a part of things.
Well, it's not just Oliver, it seems Eloise likes to be a part of his tummy time on the play mat, too. She's always laying down next to him and I think he likes it.
