I wanted to mention that our son Nick was all of 37 pounds when the top group of pediatricians were telling us he was making up this pain and suffering for attention. All of them ignoring the fact that he should have been much heavier than he was! He was so skinny, short and very pasty looking, with dark circles. Really? Faking it?
Anyhow, he is now 6 feet tall. Looking back, my husband and I argued about allowing him to eat anything he wanted. My husband would tell me he should not be eating a snickers bar or a burger. I was so happy he wanted to eat, I did not care what it was he was eating. He had been deprived of eating for so many years. I was sure to fatten him up. Well, the fattening up did not happen, Nick is probably 124 pounds now. But he is so much taller than he was supposed to be, based on height and my husbands. He is, by far, the tallest person so far in our families.
