How old is your baby this week? 5 months and 3 weeks old.

What's up with you emotionally & mentally this week? Doing pretty good. Better then normal.

What has been your biggest challenge this week? Haven't really had an challenges this week. Which is weird. Theres usually something going on every week.

Has your baby accomplished a new milestone this week? If so, what? Alex had turned into a Raptor. He screeches all the time at the top of his lungs. Its ear piercing. He has been trying to crawl. Its cute. He pulls his legs up under him and tried to push off. Most of the time he ends up rolling over.

Has your baby had any appointments or play dates? How did they go? Yes. We had our 5 month wellness visit. Alex was 14lbs 8oz and 24.5 inchs. His height worries me because its under the 5th percentile.

Random things of note? A few things. We did the March of Dimes walk yesterday. It was great

how do they determine the %? at his 5 month mark jack was a pound lighter than Alex but was considered in the 20th percentile.

I used the one on baby center. Though I don't know how right that one is. I have a chart that the WIC office gave me I think I am going to go check that out.

Same thing. Check the WIC paper they gave me and a few websites.

the percentile is based on a bunch of measurements, not just the weight.
