Hi ladies

I think that ds may be lacking in iron, he is pale and usually always has circles under his eyes (everyone loves to comment -gee he looks tired, though may have woken from a 2 hour nap ) and his behaviour is emmm a little crazy at the moment (I know could be the age factor too) but he has spurts of utter craziness!!! Last night decided to kick his sister in the head (DD is 7.5 months), screaming in her face, smack the dogs in the face, push dd around the kitchen as I was trying to feed her, throw all his trains in loungeroom- I put him in time out- didn't work at all.... anyways it appeared that no what I did he just kept this up for an hour I was at my wits end - he was like a demon possessed!! I put him in the shower washed him and put him straight to bed as DH finally decided to come home...

So my question is has anybody else had a LO with an iron def and what did you do??? I know I need to get it properly diganosed at the GP but just after your thoughts... Oh he does eat a fairly balance diet - loves fruit/cheese/milk/yougurt/salmon/sometimes meat.....

Thanks
