6th Month Health Assessment & Development Screening
Dearest Nat,
Guess what you are doing now?
I left you with porpor in the office's bedroom so that I can work on the computer. Halfway through I decided to write you a letter again.
We just called Jiujiu a while ago and porpor said that he'll be coming back some time next week which is GREAT! Let's hope he'll bring you something nice from Melbourne. That reminds me to remember to subscribe for wireless internet service so that your Daddy can work freely at home when your jiu jiu is back. Right now we are using the computer in his room to work. Jiujiu will be bringing his LCD monitor back and that will go to our room! You are going to have fun with Jiujiu when he is back. One more person to dote and play with you.
On Tuesday, I brought you for your last vaccination for this year. You have grown a little in height and quite alot in weight. You are 68.5 cm and 8.1 kg now. I thought I saw 8.3 kg on the scale but nevermind 200 gm doesn't make alot of difference. I thought you are taller than 68.5 too coz you were fidgeting alot when we were taking your height so the measurement is not very accurate. I guess you should be between 69 - 69.5 cm. Anyway the measurement taken yesterday put you in the 90 percentile in both height and weight for your age. Pretty impressive huh?
Dr Tan is pleased with the first 6 months development of your life and that makes me really happy and relieved. She also taught me how to encourage you to crawl. She is impressed with how well you can sit now and also witnessed how "manja" you are when you bawled your heart out the moment I left you lying on her table. Ha Ha.. you are my "super manja baby". You know how to manipulate me with your eyes and how can I ignore you when you look at me with tears in your eyes? The time for disciplining you will come but it is not now.
Your last jab went fine. Like the previous 2 times, I was nursing you when the doctor performed the jab. You didn't cry as usual and this time round it was a 6 in 1 jab. You were fine after the jab too! Your next development screening will be at 1 year old but I think I'll do it earlier at 9 months.
Here's a picture of you playing by yourself while I am working on the computer beside you.
