So ds is highly allergic and suffers from asthma. As a result his weight and growth are plotted by a Consultant Paed. I am always worried about his weight but am always assured that it is fine - 50th percentile for weight but 75th for height. Last visit we were referred to a dietitian more to allay my fears ( he had dropped a bit on the weight) and got advice about fussy eaters. We followed the advice in general ( don't make a big deal about food etc) and ds has not grown or put on weight in 5 months. Now Paed is worried.
The thing is he doesn't like food and I notice that even choc is met with little enthusiasm these days. We have abandoned the dietician's advice and have started to nag again. i am worried and know nagging is not the right thing. The paed has suggested multi vits with Iron as apparently low iron can influence appetite.
Grateful for any tips.
