Hadley's 8 year old check up
Today Hadley had her 8 year old check up with our new doctor.
She is already up to date with her immunization so at this check up she is now 53.5 pounds up from 47 pounds last year. She is now at the 50th percentile for weight up from the 25th percentile. This is where the doctors would like to see her! She is wearing size 7 or 8 depending on the brand of clothing. Moving more and more to size 8.
She is 123.5 cm tall up from 120 cm last year. She is in the 30th percentile for height. A little shorter than the average girl her age. (Last year she was in the 50th percentile).
This years check up had questions about how she is at school and during extra curricular activities, how she is around her peer group and family.
Basically the doctor wanted to know if I had any concerns. Nope.
There were nutrition questions. Hadley loves to balance what she eats. All good.
She wanted to make sure that she was okay with body image, she wanted to make sure there was a balance of physical activity to electronic play.
She wanted to know about sleep habits, how she responds to discipline, she wanted to make sure she was aware that helmets and seat belts etc. are for safety and necessary. As well as sun safety and dental care.
Over it was a great appointment.
