9 month update

We just got back from Elliot's 9 month appointment and the little bugger is doing great. He weighed in at 19.7 pounds and measures 27.5 inches. He is still in the 25%tile for both but as long as he stays consistent, the doctor is happy. His head measures 45.5 cm. He definitely has eczema which we suspected and will probably get worse during the winter. We've been treating it with hydrocortisone and will continue to do so but have a prescription just in case. We were given the go ahead for finger foods even though he has no teeth. The doctor has no idea when they are coming in, his gums are swollen and he feels them but it still could be weeks or months away. His next appointment is is 3 months when he turns 1 year old!
