Hey moms. Recently learned that my 3 year old fell off his growth curve, significantly. We were referred to an endocrinologist, but our appt is a couple months out. Has anyone experienced this? Hoping for piece of mind that his growth pattern is just funny and that he’ll pick back up.

Physical or learning?

Lol yes, physical. He exceeds in his cognitive development, this is purely a physical growth concern.

We have not but my father in law was telling us a story about how his brother was really tiny as a kid and they finally figured out it was a thyroid issue. Once treated now as an adult he’s almost six feet

This is helpful to know. Hope it’s either nothing or something with a simple treatment🤞🏼

For added context, there no concerns of nutritional deficits. He eats really well and well rounded and his weight has remained stable.

My brother was crazy skinny when he was a kid. Parent took him to an endocrinologist as well and did some diet adjustments. He’s grown now and the tallest one in our family!

Was he skinny and short? Or just skinny? My sons weight is normal, he only fell of the growth curve for height. I should have specified that.

Check the mineral level then. And if it is all normal just give some time if only the height is concern

Thank you, I’ll ask if we can check for this too. Anything specific in regards to mineral levels to look out for?
