Dr. Pierson was impressed with CJ, particularly in how chatty he was during our visit. He also said, developmentally, he's a rock star! CJ weighed 12 lbs 15 oz (only 14 ounces more than last month), which puts him at only the 10th percentile for weight. The doctor didn't seem too concerned though since he is such a happy baby and everything else seems to be going well. CJ is now 25" long (compared to 23.75" last month) (50th percentile). And apparently, he has a pretty big head because his head circumference puts him in the 75th percentile.
The doctor recommended that CJ have a hip ultrasound to make sure his hips are okay from being breech for so long before he was born. We'll have that done in a few weeks. CJ also had 4 shots this time! Here's a picture of him showing off his bandaides when we got home and still looking pretty upset.
Nighttime sleep is still going well at 4 months, and naps seem to be improving too, though its hard to say because CJ's schedule has been pretty sporadic with the recent move and unpacking chaos...plus will stay this way for the next couple of weeks since we'll be in California.
CJ's big accomplishment this month was rolling over, which he did for the first time on June 8, the day after we moved to NJ. He rolled from front to back while playing in his rainforest gym mat. He has also started bringing his hands to his mouth more often and can now even take his pacifier out and put it back in himself.
