No Tears from Mom

We went to Samantha's four month doctor's appointment today. I didn't even cry during the shots this time and the doctor says she is perfect, just as I suspected. We brought the following list of paranoid new parent questions which the doctor answered:

1. A lot of people have been commenting on her weight, is she too heavy? The doctor said absolutely not. As long as I am not feeding her every time she fusses and she is on a schedule, she is doing great. Breast fed babies double and triple their weight sooner than formula fed babies and the fact that she is gaining weight means she is healthy.
   
2. Dave thinks her ears are different sizes, should we be worried? The doctor said absolutely not and did not notice any difference.
3. Should she have a set nap schedule now? The doctor said we should aim for a morning and afternoon nap, roughly at the same time of day.
4. Her belly button still looks like it has dark spots from the umbilical cord, is that normal? He told us that we can clean those remnants of her umbilical cord right out of there and showed us how.
5. Should I begin introducing cereal into her diet? He said I could but said he would prefer if we waited until she was closer to six months.

Her stats were:

Length - 24.5 inches/55 percentile
Weight - 15 lbs 3 oz/ 80 percentile
Head Circumference - 16.5 inches/75 percentile

I can't believe she is already four months old! The time is really flying by.
