[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 479356, member: 11791"] Growth curves are misleading sometimes. And yes, I understand the panic attacks we get when difficult child has "issues" that appear to be side-effects of medications (but not necessarily... major nausea episode turned out to be a mild flu...). Weight gain and growth. He's 8. I remember the see-saw we were on. Feet would grow. Then he'd put on weight. And just about the time we were worried about the weight, height would start, and I'd be buying pants every two weeks. No kidding. (He's doing that again now!) And the medications he was on had the side-effect of suppressing appetite! So I couldn't pin my worry on the medications back then. So... the cycle could be "normal but not average" if that makes sense... that's what they said about our difficult child. Most kids are more subtle about the see-saw, but it was still normal. Welcome to the board! [/QUOTE]
