The doctor and I did have a discussion involving the possibility of having a "strong-willed" child on my hands! Looks like I need to do a bit of reading. I've read Dr. Dobson's Strong Willed Child(this one had a lot of good info in it and I should probably reread it) and also Shepherding a Child's Heart(did not like this one). Any other suggestions?!?!
Stats:
Weight 22lb12oz (27%tile)
Height 33in (86%tile)
Developmentally, S is right on schedule!

SO can I please just laugh and say at Jay's 9 month he was 21 lbs and was 29 almost 30 inches!!! HAHAHA MY KID is HUGE! hahahahahahaha
Uh on the strong willed child thing...START PRAYING...and talk to Kendra--she has really been a CHAMP. Mostly she will say be consistent..and routine is KEY!
What Beth said. I have also started reading Sacred Parenting and I like the first couple of chapters. (It may be similar to Shepherding though--about the heart issues, but I haven't read that one either). And what about that chart we got at M2M? I haven't used it yet, but it might be worth a shot.
Is strong-willed another word for stubborn? If so, I have a strong-willed child too. After you learn what to do, pass on some of the advice to me! Stella is a sweetie!
