Iv probably posted about this before but not been on here as much as i used to be.
I had my sons 4 year review today with the health visitor. I really dont want this to be about bashing my health visitor though as i actually really like her and the best one iv had!
Ok so my son is on a waiting list for speech therapy. She has put in another referral to chase that and also an audiology referral just incase its his hearing too.
Ok i can cope with that....
Then she did his height and weight - he is 91st centile for weight and 9th centile for height which comes back as very overweight. He is quite stocky and big built but it did hurt to hear that even though iv known hes been big since around 6 months!
So hes also been referred to a dietician on top of the other 2 things and iv to keep a food diary.
She has also managed to get him onto a football coaching camp for free (normally £100) which is lovely but i just feel terrible that hes going because hes overweight!
What should i do? I obviously need to really look at his diet and make some changes, i just am stuck feel like im really failing him
