dapostrophe, we didn't get any shots and her pedi said she was up to date until age 11

I just read up thread that others were all up to date too. I wonder why we needed so many.

I think H got her K shots last year. I was just looking at her chart and it says she got Quadracel (dtap/ipv) and MMRV last year at her 4 year check up. She didn’t get any shots at her appt this year.

N got those last year... here they can get them between 4-6 but recommend to get them at 4 because that’s when they start kindergarten here.

[jewels]

At the pedi now.

39 lbs
41.5 inches
I didn’t see what percentages those were

Apparently we need 2 shots for kindergarten as well so o am just waiting on the nurse for those. everything was good

[guster]

Josie had her five-year-old well visit today.

Weight: just a hair shy of 37 pounds
Height: 41 inches
Shots: TDAP and her flu shot.

[vino]

The kids appointments arent until Jan 17th. Ooops. I'm a good Mom, I swear.

B is 48.5 inches tall and 51 lbs. We'll be looking for a new car seat, a high back booster with 5 pt harness, to have by the end of the year.

[tgrimes]

M had hers last week.

Weight : 40lbs
Height: 41 inches

No shots. She told me to keep giving her miralax and that some kids need to be on it forever. She said I could switch between fiber gummies & miralax, but the dentist said no more gummies over a year ago. I'm going to research some probiotics. My sister has one she loves but it's only in gel capsule form. The culturelle kids stuff doesn't work for M.

We had this conversation too. She suggested miralax or even children’s exlax to restart Josie’s system.
She also suggested we have her sit on the potty each day around the same time to try and go, even if she doesn’t.

Yes, the GI said the same thing.  Well, he actually said to do it for 5 min after every meal but I obviously can't do that at daycare.  Sometimes she goes and sometimes she doesn't.  When we first started doing it she went every time.  Now she's lazy and it's like she doesn't even try.

holy cow vino - he's going to catch up to me by next year

I know, he is so tall.  People head tilt when it's just him and I.  When MH is there, it all makes 'sense'.

[jewels]

vino, I know we've all discussed our respective heights before, but how tall are you?

Also, J is very tall too, no?

I'm 5 4' and MH is 6 4'.  Both kids are in the high 90th percentile for height, maybe J has slowed down a bit, but she fits 4T pants, they have a little room but fit comfortably

So crazy. I’m still rolling up pants for H in size 18-24 months. Ha ha ha!

B has been in 2T for a while, but more for his belly than for his height.  That kid has quite the belly.

[klong11]

vino, B wins for tallest, but Sunny41's E as well as Cadence and dapostrophe's E are close behind.

I'll see how tall Evie is tonight.  Someone asked if she was 6 or 7 when we were in Colorado a few weeks ago.  I think she still beats all the other kids for weight.  Sorry kid...you get that from your mama.

We are on benefiber but it's not working. She wants us to do a 1/4 cap of miralax, stick with benefiber and push the veggies. Said the studies about negative side effects for miralax are often skewed bc kids with some other issues require it so it's hard to separate out those issues from just constipation. She said no to gummies bc of cavities. This sh*t sure does suck.

I love it when they tell you to push the veggies like we're not already trying that.  Would you like to come to my house and try to get her to eat more green beans?  Be my guest.
