What happens at checkups for babies at two, four and six months?

At the two, four and six month checkups doc will take measurements (height, weight, head circumference) and tell you how your child fits on the growth chart. She'll ask about how your baby is doing with regard to various developmental milestones. At each visit, the doc will ask about what's going in and what's coming out: how much, how often, breast milk or formula, and how are those poops going?

At two months, the doc will also check for the two soft spots: one on top of the head and one midway down the back of the skull. They're called fontanels, and they're the membrane-covered openings at the points where the plates of the skull haven't yet fused together yet. Both should feel soft.At four months, you get to discuss transitioning to solid (a relative term) food, and by six months, most kids are eating some supplemental food to receive adequate protein.

At each visit, the doc will have a thorough once over, feeling the soft spot, checking reflexes, and so on.At each visit, she'll review safety (like don't leave the baby on the couch or bed; by two months, many can wriggle off the edge, and by three months, some are already rolling.) At six months, the doc will discuss your baby's mobility in terms of sitting up and precrawling, as well as any sleeping or teething issues. Each visit comes complete with a head-to-toe physical, three shots and a squirt in the mouth of a fourth vaccine if you subscribe to the standard immunization schedule.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
