"I plan to give you love, nurturing, and just enough dysfunction to make you funny."



"Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising which tempt you to believe that your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires courage."-- Ralph Waldo Emerson

3 Month Stat's


Weight: 12lbs 9oz (27th percentile)
Height: 24" (43rd percentile)
Mason's appointment went great. Dr Mizrachy said he is right where he needs to be developmentally. We are still on Enfamil Nutramigen until his 4 month check up. At that point, we will probably go back to Enfamil Gentlease. After about 2 weeks back on that, as long as he is doing ok on it, then we will start oatmeal- not rice. The doctor said I could start with either, but rice tends to constipate some children, so in Mason's case, we should try oatmeal instead. Once we see he does ok on oatmeal after a couple weeks, we can then start vege's & fruit. I know some Doctors say to wait until baby is 6 months for anything other than milk, but Dr Mizrachy said that you can start anywhere between 4-6 months- it's up to each parent. That's all for now...

I didn't know you go to West Ped! :)
Glad the little guy is growing and healthy!
We started solids at 4 months and C handled it well. Good luck with whatever you decide to do. Noone knows Mason like his Momma :)

Our baby is growing up. Can't believe he's been with us for 3 months. The time has flown by just like with Logan and Jax. All my grandbabies are becoming big boys! Ugh, makes me feel that much older! It sucks to get old! I'm thinking about not doing it. What do you guys think I should do?
