21 Month Check-up

Jack's pediatrician does a 21 month visit instead of an 18 and 24 month visit. Apparently not much happens in that time frame so she sees them in the middle. Here's his stats...

29 pounds (75%)
34 inches (75%)
19 inch head (90%)

He's doing well. All of the things we asked about were just fine. His anti-social behavior in loud or large groups just means he's shy and gets uncomfortable. His "red-flag" (I posted a while ago about his ECFE teacher saying he had a special ed. red flag because he didn't like to get messy) is nothing. I guess autism is the most common worry and these things could be suggestive of it, however, his vocabulary and social interaction with select people and in select places just means he has comfort issues. It's nothing to worry about and it will pass. He's growing well, has nice sounding lungs, talks like crazy and that about sums it up.
