Ishaan's 1 year checkup

Today, Ishaan had his 1 year checkup appointment although he is already 15 months old now :) (Due to the timing and his doctor's suggestion about when he would like to see him, it just turned out to be this way).

Ishaan's height was 31 inches (close to 50 percentile), head circumference was 47 cm (about 40 percentile) and weight was 19 lb 13 oz. He was off the chart in terms of percentile for weight :) This has been the case for past 6 months now.

Ishaan eats well. Infact, it feels like he is eating all day. But he is not putting on weight. The doctor advised me to mix some formula in his food to help him put on weight, but I am going to try feeding him more ghee and butter and cheese :)

Everything else was fine as per the check-up.
Ishaan is healthy, happy and very active. So, I am not worried about his weight.
Most of us are worried about losing weight, while Ishaan needs to put on weight :)
