    i forgot to put in that its not due to her ot eating... she eats more then Mr M its just not getting absorbed..so im hoping it wont end up being a nasal tube...

    trillian i asked him that last time and he jokingly said then your just not feeding her enough....

    dh and i were both tinytiny children but not this small...last time she was weighed she was 1.5kg under the 5th pertcentile for weight but in 75th for hieght..

    i was going to cancel this appointment until i saw her sleeping naked...it has scared me thet maybe there is something not quite right... which i have been trying to get out of my mind by reminding myslef it must ne genetics....but surely on a high fat high sugar diet she would be putting some weight on

    I have no advice and no clue what tests they might do but just wanted to say that I hope everything comes back fine.

    Elli - it may be a case of playing around with the qty and types of supplement she is on. Or it could be hormonal. I know it is scary and frustrating but hang in there - your pead will work through this with you. Keep the appointment and try to get to the bottom of it. Let us know what happens.

    I know Christy had problems with Matilda from absorbtion issues due to her allergies, I'll give her this thread link and she can give you her insight into it.
