[quote=Anonymous]Is he active? Are you or your DH on the heavy side? If he is not active, he needs to be. My kids eat a bit of junk food but mostly home cooked meals for dinner, not too fatty/unhealthy. I don't mind if they eat junk food a bit as long as they are also active. If either your or your DH has family history of obesity then this could also be genetic, and it is imperative that he watches what he eats and is active. Agree with PPs you should be taking your DS to annual checkups, and the pediatrician should let you know about his weight.[/quote]
