A well-child visit entails monitoring the growth and development of the child. These visits are intended to assess and discuss every significant domain development of the child (Moreno, 2018). On the first well-child visit, the history that the pediatrician would take on the child in preparation for the assessment would include comprehensive birth history. Additional history that the pediatrician would take on the child in preparation for the subsequent well-child visit would include reviewing the development of the child since the last visit and reviewing notes from the previous visit. It would also be discussing the growth of the child with the parents. This may include social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development. It may further include any concern or illness exhibited by the child before the visit, child medical history as well as family history, and dietary, vaccination, and social history (Turner, 2018).
Age-appropriate growth and development questions for the two months old would include:
Question 1: Is she able to lift her head and shoulder while lying on her stomach?
Question 2: Does she follow a moving object to the midline or past the midline?
Question 3: How well she reacts to the sound?
Question 4: Does she pay attention to faces and identified people at distance?
Question 5: Does she respond to smile?
Question 6: Does she try to interact by making cooing and gurgling sounds?
Question 7: Can she bring her hand to her mouth and sucks on her hand?
