IN REPLY TO: Baby to small?????????
AUTHOR: skycladdragon
hello,

my five year old was vey tiny as an infant as well and he is still slender. everyone would always tell me how small he was and it did bother me then but i have grown to realize that babies come in all shapes and sizes. i can relate to that birth chart thing also. per that chart my son was always way smaller than the average baby. if you are really concerned you may want to try a vitamin i've heard of one in particular called poly vi sol or there is a supplemental drink called pediasure. if that doesn't work find out what foods he really likes and just let him go wild. as long as he eats there should be nothing to worry about he may just be a little guy. you may also want to try foods that really stick to the gut like mashed potatoes. all kids like that. good luck and god bless.
