  • Thank you
    Could you reply on the post for me please he doesn’t eat a lot at all and he can be like this for weeks then all of a sudden he will eat like he’s been starved for a day and back to not eating again. I try to tempt him to everything but he just doesn’t like eating he has some disabilities and health issues including hydrocephalus ( fluid on the brain) so his head is over sized and I’m sure his head is holding most of the weight I mentioned it to Paediatrics and they said he will eat if he’s hungry but I’m still concerned. I will go back to the gp but just wanted to check that I’m not over reacting he’s always been short and abit of a chunk so to me it’s concerning x

  • My daughter is 2 and weighs 2st4 which I think may be classed as a little over weight but she’s healthy. If he’s healthy try not to worry to much. He will put some weight on when he has a growth spurt x
