Schedule of appointments?
How often does your infant go to the ped. for well visits?
Our last appointment was at 2 months and our next isn't until 4 months... but I saw MAC posted about a 3 month appointment.
Is it normal to just have an appt at 2 months then 4 months??

Re: Schedule of appointments?
we had same as you.. 2 month and then again at around 4 months for more shots...also my ped separates shots apparently and now Im going every two weeks so he gets 2 shots instead of 4 at the visits.

Re: Schedule of appointments?
2 months - Shots 4 months - Shots 6 months - Shots 9 months - No shots, but had TB test 12 months -?? 15 months - MMR
I assume after 15 months is 18 months.
We have yet to have DD's 12 month well visit since I've had to reschedule twice due to blizzards.
Finally taking her tomorrow.

Re: Schedule of appointments?
I think we had 1, 2, 3, 4 and next one is 6...but I also go for shots in between a lot, so I feel like I am there every 2 weeks!

Re: Schedule of appointments?
The well appts were 2 weeks, 1 mth, 2mth, 4mth, 6 mth, 9 mth, etc.
The ped did want to see DD at 3 and 5 months for weight checks. All they did was weigh and measure her.

Re: Schedule of appointments?
It is normal to have appts at 2 months and then not again until 4 months.
My ped does 1 week, every month from 1-6, then 8, 10, 12... I interviewed with another ped and he felt that this schedule was just a way for the Drs to make more $$ off of your insurance.

Or, you could weigh yourself, then step on the scale with him and subtract your weight
