Baby's Head Size

My son was born with a small head. He's now 3 months old and continues to be in the 1-4% for head size. My doctor is freaking me out about things that could be wrong. I would like to hear from moms who have kids with small heads too. Should I be concerned? To be clear, he's also at about 4% for weight so he's very proportional. And his head has consistently grown at each check-up. Add'l note: He is also meeting milestones appropriate for his age - he's smiling, "talking", laughing, follows things with his eyes, holds his head up very...

Weaning from Bottle

My pediatrician told me at my sons 9 month visit that it was time to start weaning him from the bottle. He said to start putting 1 bottle a day in a cup or sippy cup and gradually wean off of all bottles by the time he's 1. He's obviously not having it. Any tips or advice? I don't want him to miss out on nutrition. He's been drinking water from a sippy cup for months but isn't interested in the formula and gets very upset. He also won't finger feed. He's been on purees and cereals since 4 months old but if any SOLID food enters his mouth he...

My Daughter Is in the 1 Percentile for Her Height and weight...worried Mom

My daughter is 13 months old and is in the 1 percentile for her height and weight. She is still on formula (drinks out of a sippy cup...about 4 10oz a day). Her doctor is very concerned that her weight has only gone up 1/2 a pound since her last check-up and her height hasn't increased much either. She now weighs 16lbs for a 13 month old. What I don't understand is that she eats great, drinks plenty of formula but hasn't gained in either weight or height? She hasn't walked independently yet. She will walk along furniture, but does crawl.....

Baby Weight Dropping Curves...

My little girl was born over 10 lbs - that's upper 90%, and has been dropping down the curves ever since. She's a strictly breast-milk baby, and is very active and happy most of the time (let's face it, what baby is happy ALL the time?). I've weighed her again today (using medical scales, so the reading is accurate) and at a few days over 7 months, she's 15 lb 4 oz, and that's with a diaper on! According to the cdc charts, she's dropped to below 25%. We've started trying solids, but she firmly refuses cereal (or anything white in a spoon)...

Curves Work for You?

I've once again decided it's time to do something about my weight. I used to be thin and trim without trying, was very active in sports, aerobics, etc. Then kids came. I've slowly put on weight for the past 10 years. I've tried several "life style changes" (aka - diets). W.W. worked for a while several years ago, I've tried that recently and I just can't seem to stick to it. Also did Thin & Healthy, once again worked for a short while, couldn't handle it in the long run. Prism and I didn't work well together at all. We have a local Curves,...
