Taking Your Child to your Pediatrician

At the three year checkup, you can expect:

• An examination of your preschooler's growth and development.
• A review of feeding and sleep schedules.
• Measurement of his height, weight and blood pressure.
• Counseling for injury prevention, dental health, and a proper diet.
• A discussion of toilet training progress.
• Immunizations: a review of your child's immunizations to make sure they are up to date. If they are, the next immunizations will be his four year boosters.

• Screening test: vision test.

The next check up with your pediatrician will be when your child is four years old.
