[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mine was literally off the charts at that age. He skimmed down once he started crawling and started running about a month after that. He’s a teen now and on the taller/muscular side but no thuge. IME, the endos at children’s won’t even see you unless you’ve already had the blood work done to justify a referral. They have too many potential patients. [/quote] I thought that too but I already have an appointment, so we’ll see what happens. Thanks- he isn’t crawling yet.[/quote] We had a bone growth scan and blood tests for one of our kids who on the lower percentiles in height as a baby. They wouldn’t even refer to an endo without it. I was terrified and cried thinking something was really wrong. But the child is totally healthy, just short. Like our ped said: some kid has to be at both ends of the spectrum.[/quote]
