Dimples I'm so sorry you can't go to your grans funeral. How terrible 
I hope you're all ok x
I forgot to say yesterday. Ds was weighed and had his height done at his appointment, he has grown 5cm in 2 months (that seems a big jump in a short time!).
(I'm only just over 5ft and he's up to my armpit) not sure if that's tall for his age compared to other kids, because I don't really know any other kids his age, and I've always been small so most people look giant to me lol. So ds looks tall to me regardless.
But he's put no weight on at all since between the summer at his first appointment and now. Which doesn't seem like long time wise, but the dr said usually children at this age would gain between half and 1 pound per month. That's what they want to see.
Methylphenidate can affect growth (height and weight) so they want to keep a close eye on his weight. He asked if he was eating less but he's not really, roughly the same, except he won't eat pack lunch at school but has something extra when he gets in instead.
He is looking skinnier by the day though. Which doesn't help since he's growing upwards, he's looking loads slimmer!
I'm going to give him blue milk instead of green for a bit and see if I can get some more calories in him, just so hard when he's so fussy! And what he eats isn't exactly calorific (how are we even related ??? 
) bread sticks and plain pasta and the odd bit of bolognese and chocolate is basically ds menu at the minute. Anything else I offer goes on the floor. He used to love peanut butter sandwiches and that's loaded in calories but of course when I need him to eat calories, I get 'i hate peannnuttttt buttterrr'
Kids!!
