DS is almost 6 months old. Born on the 2nd centile at full term, he was getting up to the 9th centile until 8 weeks and he’s now been below the 1st ever since. He’s still in 0-3 months/newborn clothes, he’s tiny!!
My issue is no one seems to think there is a problem. We see the health visitor every few weeks for weighing and she’s not bothered as he’s hitting his milestones developmentally. GP not interested.
He also has awful eczema, hates bottles, he has nappies full of mucus 3 times per day. He is on hydrolysed milk for CMPA but we saw a private paediatrician to get this diagnosed. He was the first person who has expressed concern at his weight.
Does anyone have experience of this? I’m concerned there is something wrong that’s not being diagnosed. I’m also worried DS will never catch up! I know babies born premature at the same time as his who now weight about 6lb more than him!
