18-month Checkup

Yesterday (2/24/10), Olivia had her 18-month doctor's appointment. Here are her stats:

Weight: 22 lbs. 2 oz. (20th percentile)
Height: 30.5 inches (20th percentile)
Head circumference: 46.2 cm
Shots received: Hep A

I think Olivia now has a memory of what happens at the doctor's office. She was in a pleasant mood on the ride to the office and in the waiting room, but as soon as her name was called and we walked back to the scale with the nurse, she completely lost it. Fortunately, I had brought her blanket to comfort her a bit before the doctor arrived in our room. However, she immediately went back to crying hysterically when the doctor entered. The doctor said that her behavior was typical for her age. She also said that she was a strong, healthy girl who is on track based on her statistics. We got her almost all dressed prior to the shot so that we could make a quick escape.
