His 7-9month assessment.

Final on his 9th month the health visitor finds time to see him!

He's still small for his age but neither of us are big, so wouldn't really expect him to be although born weighing 8lb 8oz so maybe you'd expect him to be?!

Today he weighs 18lb's and on the second row up on his weight chart, his head is little apparently, i always thought it was big! LOL He has 2 cherries(testicles), all joints and hips are OK! So all in all a healthy boy! YAY!

WARNING THE REST IS ABOUT POO!

Not sure about her advice about his poo though, i asked if its normal for him to always do runny poos, she said it was fine! I have cut all brown bread from his diet and even cut his beloved raisins wheat's to see if we could firm it up, so far nope! The only result is that we now only have one poo per day and that he still trumps as much, his poo still stinks as much and its equally as runny! He currently drinks 21oz of milk per day. What do you think?? Should i book to see doc??

Tough call on the poo. I probably wouldn't go to the docotor if he seems happy and health in every other way. If it will make you feel better, then make an appointment. Its better to be safe than sorry.

K still has runny-ish poo. It's not diarheara, just runny.
He also has approximately 25 oz of formula daily, too.
My opinion: If he's healthy otherwise and is poo-ing regularly then he should be fine.

However, I second the previous poster and if you are concerned, make an appt w/ a DR.

Sounds like plenty of milk to me, what with all that food. It's how much my baby drinks and she eats hardly any food!

Glad he's doing well!

Not going to worry about the poo - thanks for your replys! Been doing my usual internet stalking and its very normal.
