I've had another visit to Nurse Anne at the Child Health Centre. My stats are: weight 6690 grams, height 62 cm, and head circumference 40.5cm. This puts me at the 90th percentile for weight, but closer to the 70th percentile for height, which accounts for my slightly chubby thighs...

During the visit, Mum put me on the floor on my tummy, where I was happily looking around until I somehow managed to flip over onto my back. I got a bit of a shock, and so did Mum since I bumped into her leg. I'll see if I can practice that move a bit more.

I'm having a bit of trouble with some of my feeds. For some reason, I drink for a few minutes before I start getting tummy pains, which make me really scream. This mostly only happens in the evening. So then I'm really uncomfortable for a couple of hours and can't sleep either. Other feeds during the day can be a bit uncomfortable too; I get such an onslaught of milk that I have to gulp way quicker than I really want to and end up really burpy afterwards. After a few minutes I pull off and look at Mummy and try to tell her to tone down the squirting in the back of my throat, but what comes out is, 'ngooo'. I think maybe she understands, although she doesn't do anything about it.
