6 Month Stats

I took Donny for his 6 month check up last week. Here are his stats:

Weight - 20 lb. 5 oz.
Height - 28 inches
Head - I can't remember this, but it was in the 90th percentile.

This boy is BIG! He's in the 90-95th percentile for everything. We've still been dealing with some skin issues, so the doctor recommended a whole bunch of changes for Donny - new formula, new bath soap, hydrocortisone once daily, Aquaphor twice daily, bath daily, and an antiobiotic for 10 days.

Donny is NOT a fan of the new formula. It smells awful, so I can only imagine how it tastes. This is new for us since Donny LOVES LOVES LOVES to eat!

After making all these changes, his skin really does look better...but Don and I can't help but wonder WHAT really is making the difference? Is it the hella expensive formula, the antibiotic, or all the other stuff?

I have to make an appointment to go see a dermatologist soon, and we have our follow-up appointment with the pediatrician in 3 weeks.

I know that we're doing this to help Donny, but I want my happy and 'love to eat' baby back!
