Max is, as of his 24 month Well Baby check-up, a fully caught up 2 year old!
The stats:
Height: 33.5″ tall (23rd percentile)
Weight: 23 lbs. 8 oz (5th percentile)
Head Circumference: 19″ (38th percentile)
It's amazing to think how far he's come from 14.5″ inches tall and 2 lbs. 4.8 oz!
Even though he's “on the charts” now, we're going to wait until his 2 years adjusted date (July) to see how tall he is and predict that “when you're 2 you're half your final adult height” thing… I don't know how it applies to preemies, since it's a pretty safe bet he'll be over 6 feet and I don't *think* he'll grow 3″ in the next 3 months, but I've also read something that says that you should measure at closer to 30 months (2.5 years) to get a better idea, so we'll try again then and then wait 15 or 16 years and see which is right!
I'm glad your preemie is doing so well. Happy Birthday 2 year old!
When Amelia was 2, we predicted she'd be 6 feet – so much for that rue of thumb!
