Toddler has not gained any weight

[PickledLily]

I know that growth slows once they start walking, but i realised yesterday that my nearly 2 year old is the same weight as she was 8 months ago. She's dropped nearly 2 centiles. She has grown in height; DH thinks she's just 'stretching out' but I'm worried she's not gaining weight. She's a fussy eater and sometimes misses meals as a result, but that's normal for toddlers, isn't it? I'll ring the HV tomorrow anyway, but am I over-reacting?

Pics are on my profile now.

Oh and I haven't even mentioned the can of worms that is the relationship between gut health and tongue ties.........

I seem to remember reading that there is a book being written about this at the moment, I might be wrong though

Oh, gut health. Yes, I have been told about that, and using probiotics. DD is on antibiotics currently so there doesn't seem much point in using probiotics for the time being.

I can well believe it affected your mental health. It is relentless and draining, when you know something isn't quite right but there is no one fighting your corner. I'm glad you are feeling better now though and have a plan for DS. The photos are useful; DDs palate isn't high or narrow as your DS's, although it used to be quite high at the back. Is it possible it's resolved itself? It seems to have flattened out a bit. However there is no way that DD could open her mouth that wide! That's an impressive lip tie as well! DD has one that split when she was a few months old.

Agggh, have to go, DD coughing and spluttering in her sleep...
