15 Month Check ups



Twins at 15 months

Last Thursday we had Brett and Gantt's well 15 month checkups. This was the last time I'm taking them both at the same time! It was crazy, even with 2 people!! We saw Dr. Davis at Wake Forest Peds, and Gantt got all his 12 months shots. His were on hold because of Brett's natural killer cell deficiency. Brett got shots also, but none that contained live viruses.

Brett weighed in at 21 lbs 3.5 oz, which is in the 8th percentile for his age. His height was less than 5%. However, we are truly encouraged that he is even on the chart at all, because for a while he wasn't.

Gantt weighed in at 23 lbs 4 oz, which is in the 28th percentile. His height is 82%!!! Gantt will go back in a few weeks to get the 15 months shots and our next well visit will be at 18 months.

  1. I did Kerry's one year shots and Emily's 5 year shots at the same appointment several years ago. Bad idea!! Your boys are growing so nicely. Emily did not reach 22 lb until she was 2!

  2. This is good news, especially on Brett, but I couldn't help but get a chuckle! I remember taking my boys (one at a time) for their checks and can't imagine taking two!!!!

    Hang in there, Girl! We learn more from experience than we ever will from well-meaning advisors or books!!!!

    Seriously, I'm sitting here chuckling just thinking of you trying to handle two in that situation! But so happy about Brett's making the chart!!
