[quote=Anonymous]I think pullman and ariza handled my child's FTT well -- an appropriate level of concern, but not panic (i, on the other hand, struggled with anxiety about it) and they didn't blame us.  child born at 50% to parents both between the 75%-90% in height, fell to 10% in height and off curve for weight by around 15 months.  we saw endo and gastro at children's, but both thought when they saw her that her pretty severe reflux was under control, that she had enough fat to grow and that she probably had constitutional growth delay.    at 3, she seemed to catch up a bunch, and at 6, while she is not in the 75% to 90%, she looks right-sized with her peers and has a normal appetite with some texture and pickiness issues.  knock on wood, she is doing well developmentally and we have not had an issues there.  good luck.  you didn't say your child's age.  i was so anxious about this since growth and the growth chart is part of every appt those 1st 18th months.   we had extra appts, did oil in food, pediasure for a bit, periactin for a bit too, but no one made me feel bad (and I was breastfeeding during most of this time -- which they supported).[/quote]
