4 Month Check-up

Thursday Ryker had his 4 month check up! He weighs 15.6 lbs and is in the 57%... 25.5 inches in the 67%! He was talking up a storm when the dr was in the room and he kept rolling over for her...such a show off... which led her to say that he is ahead with his speaking skills as well as his physical skills...she thinks he could be an early talker/crawler/walker...always a proud mamma moment when you hear positive things! She also had us start feeding him jar foods! This week we are doing sweet potatoes! I have never been so scared about giving a baby food!! A possibility of a food allergy is so scary!! We also went to the eye specialist to check his tear duct in his right eye..and also because the dr was concerned that he might be a little cross-eyed in his right eye...but the specialist said he just does it when he focuses on things and he is probably still working things out so it should be corrected on its own..if it doesnt then he might have to wear an eye patch in a few months...as for the tear duct.. it has a supr high chance of being fixed by the time they are 6 months and once they are 6 months it drops and is less likely to fix itself... soo they offered to do it that day but we got too freaked out! They have to stick a thin wire down his tear duct to unclog it...they hold him down and it takes about 2 minutes...sooo if its not better in 2 months then we have to do it...he wants to do it before ryker is 1 becuase then we would have to get it done at the hospital under anesthesia...which we dont want to have to do!
