[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]75 pound for a eight year old boy is kind of normal.[b] But not able to button up shirts is not. [/b]Sounds like the OP’s son is shorter than average. Hopefully he will grow taller without not gaining more weight. In the meantime, you could maybe send him to a nutritionist so that he can hear from someone else the importance of eating healthy and exercise more. Our pediatrician has a nutritionist on staff.[/quote] That would depend on the size of the shirt. My son is a healthy weight, but this morning he tried on a shirt from Grandma that was huge on him. That doesn't mean he was suddenly malnourished. It meant Grandma bought the wrong size. Similarly, it sounds like OP's kid has shirts that are too small.[/quote]
