Isaac had his 5 month well-child check up today. Daddy, Grandma Lucy, and Grandpa Ed all went while mommy worked.
He now weighs 16.5lbs and is 26.93inches long! He gained 1.5lbs and inches! Such a growing boy!!!!
The pediatrician said that he is definitely teething, though can't determine which tooth it is. But by the way he grabs things and stuffs them in his mouth to chew, that is a big sign. She recommended teething tablets and Motrin to help with the pain.
She also gave the thumbs up for starting rice cereal and Stage 1 baby foods :)
And lastly, she took a look at his chest (which has been red and itching him lately). He has a bit of eczema and combining that with the drool is causing a fungal infection. She is prescribing him an ointment to help with all of that so hopefully we will see some difference in the next week or so.
I think that's about it... I'll update with pictures later on :)
