Growth Report on Cen Xiaobei

Cen Xiaobei: (Cen is the surname of children in the institute, Xiaobei means "bud".), female, was born on September 20th, 2004. She was found abandoned before the gate of Hengfeng Civil Affairs by the staff Wang Yonghong on September 30th, 2004 and sent into the institute the same day. When she was found, she was wrapped in the quilt and next to her were a bottle, 2 bags of milk powders and some clothes. We did a full check-up for her and she was in good health. Our doctor estimated her Date of Birth to be September 20th, 2004.

She is living in the institute. She is healthy and develops well. When she was 1-month-old, she had good sucking ability and normal appetite. When she was 2-months-old, she began to laugh. When she was 3-months-old, she could make sounds like "Ah" and "Oh". When the caregiver talked to her, she would burble to reply. If the caregiver patted her hands, she would giggle. When she was 4-months-old, she could locate sound if she heard someone call her, and then smile to the one. If she woke up without seeing her caregiver, she would cry sadly. But she would stop crying as soon as she heard the caregiver’s voice. When she was 5-months-old, she began to understand adults’ facial expressions, recognize familiar people, and babble to people or objects. When she saw her bottle she would get very excited. Her thumbs are flexible. She would hold a toy but stare at another one. If the toy dropped down, she would look for it. She liked to listen to music. She could raise her head when sitting and could stand up with assistance. When she was 6-months-old, she became far more livelier. She could walk in the walker. All the staff at the orphanage love her very much. She likes them to take her to play outside.

Now her main food is a mixture of milk powders, cereals and honey. She has 5 meals per day and about 200ml per meal. She also eats noodles, eggs and biscuits. She sleeps through the night with the light on and likes to sleep with her caregiver. She is outgoing and energetic. She likes shopping best. Urination and bowel movements are normal.
