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.

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!

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.

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 weightChat Icon
