At my baby's very first doctor's appointment, we received a little booklet that allowed us to record information from that appointment and all further ones. The nurse wrote my son's age, height, and weight, and showed me the places where the next appointment's stats would go. There was also a section for vaccinations received. (This is important to keep because schools require their students to be vaccinated for certain grade levels). I could also write any questions I had for the doctor so I wouldn't forget them for the next checkup. Handy, no? Furthermore, when I went to update my son's baby book, lo and behold, I discovered there was also a section for medical records.
How do you keep tabs of your child's growth and development? Do you write down what the doctor measures for your own records?

I have about 3 cards with Ariana's height, weight, age at the time, and vaccines. There's also a place in her baby book, but I rarely update it, because honestly, I forget about it, lol.
@NOTdaGRLnextDR@xanga - I have 2 booklets. It's hard to keep everything updated, LOL.
