My son had his 9 month checkup today...and he hasn`t gained a pound nor grown in length in the past 3 months. He is 13 pounds. The doc said it might be a thyroid problem so he had blood drawn today and I will find out on Monday. Has anyone else had this problem, and if so what was the outcome?

karenbg (1069.4 days ago) sounds like something called failure to thrive; there are lots of different reasons for it; the outcome and treatment depends on the reason...it`s good your doc is investigating rather than take the `wait and see` approach
