My stats are all wiped so I'm just going to do a summary.

H was around 16.5 lbs at 6 months. He has hovered between 20-25th percentiles for weight.
Height has ranged from 10-20th percentiles.
Head has been pretty consistently 50th percentile.

His clothing size has matched his age. He wore NB until around 1 month. Wore 0-3 until just after 3 months. And was still wearing 3-6 when he turned 6 months.
Was still wearing size 2 diapers when he turned 6 months, but we were almost finished the pack and had plans to move up once the pack was done.

At 6 months, H was rolling side to side, sitting up unassisted for a few seconds, doing lots of babbling (including some mama) laughing and yelling. He does not sleep, doesn't drink from a bottle, and we were just getting ready to start solids at 6 months. He LOVES his big brother and loves being up with mommy. He is not a fan of mommy walking away for even a minute. Basically he's a stage 5 clinger lol.

I don't remember having any real concerns. Had some early on when I suspected his lip/tongue ties, which were missed by multiple doctors/nurses. Finally had them diagnosed and treated at 8 weeks, which improved nursing significantly. I also think I was mildly concerned about his weight, but that was only because he is so much smaller than his brother.

I think that's everything.

Height (percentile): 26.25 (21%)

Head (percentile): (74%)

Clothing Size: 9mo, still some 6mo bottoms

Likes/Dislikes/AWs/Milestones/etc: Likes: his bouncer, tummy time, being outside, Sophie the giraffe, baths
Dislikes: he's really a happy baby lately, I'm having a hard time coming up with anything
Milestones: he can sit unassisted for a little bit, rolling all directions like a champ, rocking on his knees like he's trying to crawl.
I'm concerned about his weight, he was always in the 30% range and this appointment he dropped a lot. The ped doesn't seem concerned but that's the doctor that I'm not really fond of.
