6 Month-Old Not Eating Enough

Hi everyone-- My daughter just had her 6-month checkup and is near the bottom %ile in body weight, I guess? She's 27 inches long (very long!) and weighs 13 lbs, 11 oz.

14 Month Old with Excema and Psoriasis

Hi, my almost 14 month old son has been having major skin issues since about April when I slowly started to wean him. It started out as excema behind the knees which was treated and gone, then some impetigo on his upper arms that turned into weeping sores, then cleared up with a very heavy duty corticosteriod. Then a few weeks later he came down with some sort of virus and shortly after that had these horrible bumps all over his body...I had never seen anything like it. I took him to a dermatologist and they had to take a biopsy out of...
