Abby is almost 8 months old (on the 25th), but yesterday was 4 months from her due date (her corrected age). She is doing quite well for a 4 month old. She almost rolled over completely from her back to her stomach just a few minutes ago. She just needed a little help getting her one hand out of the way. Hopefully she'll be seeing either a speech or occupational therapist soon. This is to try and figure out why she is being so stubborn about eating. She should be taking in atleast 24-32 ounces per day, but she averages 12-14. This is not enough for optimal growth. As the pediatrician said today, "Thankfully she has some back up chubbiness to keep her going." She weighed in at 12 lbs 12 1/2 ounces today. That's up about 6 ounces from 3 weeks ago. Other than the eating she's doing pretty good in other areas. She's a very happy baby most of the time who likes to smile and chat with you.
