Jayen is nine months old today. We had an appointment with our wonderful pediatrician. Jayen was cleared for his 6 month shots (only 3 months late, not too bad), but he was concerned about Jayen's weight loss. He weighed 17 lbs. 15 oz. and was 27 1/2 inches long. He has dropped almost 2 lbs. I know, I know, he had a lot of extra weight. He can afford to loose some, right? Most of his bulk was water weight, so the doctors were hoping that he would maintain his weight and kind of just grow into it.
I expressed my concerns about his eating habits. He is refusing almost everything. His appetite is so small then when I give him his medicine in the morning he is almost full from just that. He refuses ALL solids. We have to force it down. We've tried almost everything and he just refuses. The doctor wants us to come back in two weeks to do another weight check. We will keep an eye on it.
