2 Year Check-Up

Hayden had her 2 year check-up today.  Here are her stats:

Height: 35 inches 77th percentile
Weight: 25 lbs 26th percentile
Head Circumference:  49.5 cm or 19.5 inches 92nd percentile

She also had her polio vaccine and the flu mist.  Crazy Hayden didn't cry at all during the shot, the exam, even when the Dr. looked at her tonsils, but lost it when she had to put her clothes back on and leave the office.  She wanted to stay and "play." 

My main concern was the soft spot on her head.  At her 18 month appointment they told me not to worry about it and if it was still present at 2 years old then we would take action.  Well it is still there sadly and she has been referred to a pediatric neurosurgeon.  I guess not many doctor specialize in this area so we could have to wait awhile to get an appointment.  I hope we can do what needs to be done this year since we have already met her deductible!!!  The pediatrician did say that usually they are most concerned when a soft spot is still present and the head is growing at abnormal rates.  But because Hayden's head has always been in the 90th percentile, they view this as steady growth.  So we'll see what happens. 

Here is a picture of Hayden with the rubber gloves from the office.  She ate lunch with them on today!
