1 %-ile

Well, it is official. Ms. Claire has actually hit the growth curve. Mom & Claire headed to the doctor's for another quick checkup this afternoon. Claire weighed in at 6 lbs 15 ounces. Can we just call it 7 lbs? After her meals today she should be there, right?? This puts her in the 1 %-ile compared to other babies her age. We are delighted she has hit the growth curve!! Our doctor said that with her adjusted age, she would be in the 50th %-ile. Since Claire was due around August 5th we assume she would have weighed in between 7-7.5 lbs at birth. She is also 19.75 inches long, which also places her on the growth chart around the 1% mark. Our baby girl is growing up!
