9-month check-up

bumisita kami sa pedia ni pistoy yesterday for his 9-month checkup.

weight-wise, he's on the 25th percentile.
height-wise, he's on the 75th percentile.
laki-ng-ulo-wise, nasa 90th percentile si pistoy! *lol*

so now i have a new nickname for him: "pistoy palito". hehe!

the rest of the check up stats were good, doc is very happy that he's a healthy baby *knock on wood*. pistoy  also got his first flu shot. sandali lang umiyak, then ok na sya. di pa nga lumalabas yung nurse, back to ngatngat na siya  dun sa pang-push down ng dila eh. =P we're going back after a month to get the second shot. i dunno, they give it in 2 shots for babies daw eh.

that reminds me, the rest of the household needs to get the flu shots na rin. mr.co-creator and i have a voucher for free shots, so we only need to pay for papa's. siguro hindi kami sabay-sabay magpapaturok, para kung magka-reaction man kaming lahat, may mag-aalaga pa rin kay pistoy. baka kami muna ni papa, then si je later on.

jecobie was prescribed with a medication for skin eczema. nagkakasugat minsan yung alak-alakan nya, at yung sa harap ng siko. we've been using Aquaphor on it, pero preventive lang ata yon eh. so the new medication (which we still need to pick up from the pharmacy) will start the healing process. we need to continue using the hypoallergenic bath soap and shampoo, and continue using lotion on his skin. sus naman anak, bakit sa tatay ka pa nagmana ng balat, napaka-sensitive!

i thought may test si pistoy sa pedia nya, kung nakaka-upo, tayo or crawl na sya. pero tinanong lang kami if he's doing those already.i'm glad she didn't ask how we're doing with the sippy cup, dahil we completely abandoned that for now. hehe!

so pistoy palito is top-heavy. we better watch him closely when he's cruising. baka mag-topple over pag yumuko. hehe! =P
