Take that Doctor....!

This is what I would like to do to our pediatrician's head.....but since we just studied about wrath and anger and how un-Christlike they are, I will refrain.
Took Mateo for his four month checkup today....got the next round of shots.....and the usual lecture about how my kids weigh too much. It's sooooo frustrating....and after today I've had enough....we'll be changing pediatricians. My kid is four months old, exclusively breastfed.....it's not like I'm double feeding him.....he eats when he's hungry! I hate growth charts....I think they should toss em out the window.....I was sort of hoping Mateo would aim some projectile vomit at his suit....but it didn't happen....the ironic thing is, his name is Angstman.....he definitely inspires some angst in me!!


How could you look at my adorable little boy and tell me that I'm doing anything wrong?!

I think we're gonna have to get Chloe into swimming lessons.....she loves being in the water!!

I know how you guys feel. I get a LONG lecture every time we go in for a check up like they think I'm starving my kids or something. We are on the other side neither one is even on the growth chart....below 3%!!! They eat and are healthy what else am I gonna do. SOOOO frustrating though when you go in and they start lecturing you!!!

That is so frustrating!!! Growth charts are just a bunch of averages. If your kids eat healthy and get exercise, then that is all they should be looking at, not how they compare to other kids!

I am so glad to hear you are switching doctors. I don't think you'll regret. I LOVE that picture of Chloe and Aurelia, but then... I think I told you that already. ;)
