9 Month Dr. Appointment

Our Pediatrician's office is WONDERFUL... Children's Medical Group....it is where we take Milla AND where I work... http://www.cmg-pc.com/ - we see Dr. Cox--but, I LOVE all of our providers.
Milla just had her 9 month appointment
Weight: 19# 13.5 oz
Height: 29 inches
TIPS FROM VISIT:
*
we really need to "baby proof" the house because she will be on the move soon
*at this age they need on avg. 18-24 oz of breast milk/or formula per day
*try starting to ease away from the pacifier-(the earlier you do it-they easier it will be)--have them only use it while they are at home, then-only in the crib, then-only at night, then-not at all. ( I'm sure it is easier said than done!!)
*Can pretty much start eating any foods except the big ones you want to avoid until they are older (milk, peanut butter, nuts, eggs whites, honey, strawberries, citrus fruit, shellfish...)
