15 Month Well Visit

The girls went for their 15 month well visit on Saturday (the18th) and things very went well overall.

They’re both staying on their growth curve for height and weight - Taylor is just about into the 50^th percentile for everything and Leah is still hovering in the 10-20^th percentile for weight and 50^th for height.

The doctor was very impressed (surprised even) with their language skills, comprehension and motor skills -they’re charting closer to 2 year old in those areas and for preemie multiples (who generally are expected to be behind) that’s a pretty big deal, so we’re very happy.

A couple of physical things came up, Taylor’s left hip is clicking a little and we have to get some x-rays done to check for hip dysplasia – we’ll keep an eye on it and address whatever needs to be addressed once the testing is completed (fingers crossed and prayers that it’s a ligament issue and not actually dysplasia). Leah’s left foot is turning in but should resolve itself (with some exercises) without a problem.

Here’s their stats:

Taylor
Height: 30.75”
Weight: 22lbs. 12oz.

Leah
Height: 31"
Weight: 20lbs. 12oz.
