I'm pretty sure that the timing of of wellness checks is based on the vaccine schedule (not on what the child would otherwise need).
That's why there are more and more of those check up appointments as shots are added to the schedule. When I was a child, we saw the pediatrician maybe once/year, and before that it was probably even less frequent.

In any case, it's a tricky balance! Best wishes as you navigate it.
