Able to sit on her own



Just that day, we brought Eve for 3rd 6-in-1 jab, the last dose until when she reached 15 mths. She is pretty strong as she did not develop any fever after her jab! According to her pead, she is progressing very well in terms of health, physically & mentally. Ok, here's her updates:-
Weight: 7.5 kg
Height: 66 cm
At age: 5 mths 2 weeks

She is under 75% percentile for gals her age. I still thought she was small! The paed still assured me Eve is not small & definitely healthy baby. Dr Tan checked on Eve's general health like:
  1. Her hearing skills - passed. She could hear high & low tone pitch.
  2. Her eye sight - passed. She could see things in almost pitch dark.
  3. Her motor skills - passed. She could grab things and pass an object from one hand to the other.
  4. Her legs movement - passed. She is very agile & likes to jump alot.
  5. She could roll over from back to front, front to back.
  6. She could SIT! We were quite surprised because we didn't realised that skill. Her backbone was very straight when she sit and could stay sit for a few minutes without assistance. Well, we will practice that skill of hers until she could sit on her own for good.
  7. She is not teething yet though.
  8. Dr Tan also check if she could babble a few words like mama or dada, etc. We only realised that she likes to scream alot and try to imitate our words but haven't realised whether she could say mama or dada...

Well, after going through those checks, we are appreciative and thank God that Evangeline has progressed well as what she could do at her age. We asked Dr Tan if she needs to go for checkup at 9 mths but Dr Tan said Evangeline is fine so far and doesn't need to do the checks as she's progressing well.
