L was up 4 times but I went to bed at 8 so I got several solid hours before his first wake up.
We had his 15 month well check yesterday. He hasn't gained any weight. I knew it already bc his 12 month clothes still fit the same. He still nurses and he has gotten to where he won't eat much. Even when I purposefully fix foods I know he loves. I'm thinking of trying one of those pediasure shakes to see if those will help him gain weight.
We also dropped in weight. We just got over a stomach bug.I'm concerned but my pedi wasnt too worried. She's now more proportional she said at 33.5" and 24#6oz. Before her stomach bug though she was on the scale with me and weighed about 25 and some so, I'm hoping she gains it back.she's so picky, too.
DD2 is still on the small side. 29inches and her last weight was just over 22lbs. Nobody has expressed any concern to me, though we haven't lost weight, it's just been a slow climb. She eats ok but is picky, and she's SUPER active. I'm thinking of trying to get her on to shakes so I can sneak veggies in with the fruits. I can hide zucchini in things easy (breads, muffins, meatloaf) but she's quick to pick out the rest.
Meanwhile her 15 day old brother is 24 inches and weighed 11lbs 4oz today. Everybody says with their age gap they'll be really close. I'm guessing that means she'll be the mouth and he'll be the muscle?

L is only 18 lbs, which puts him low on the growth curve.

B had also lost weight a few months ago, but he had been sick. The doctor didn't know, as at the last check up his weight was the same as the time before. We weighed him at home a week or so later and that's when we noticed the drop. (So could've been different scales too.) He had no appetite for more than a week, and so we put him on a probiotic. That did the trick, got his appetite back and he put the weight (plus some!) back on. He's now up to 26.4 lbs, and not sure on height, but I think around 33 inches. It's been a while since we measures.

So I decided to fly instead of drive for mine and B's short spring break holiday. We had some air.miles to use so it kept the cost down. Now I just have to decide what to bring playpen or stroller? I'm leaning towards playpen.

sunfrogger88 I do think it's normal to start leveling out, my DD1 was always a chubby baby and once she hit a certain point, I feel like she's only growing in height. She hasn't gained much in awhile now. I feel like DD2 will be the same

flutterfly88, why do you think the probiotics helped with gaining weight? I'm just curious because I may give that a try. I have some from when he was on so many antibiotics.

I think it brought back his appetite, so by eating more he gained back the weight/

I guess I'm just curious about the link between his appetite and the probiotic. I will look into it. Thanks!

He's generally been a good eater, so it seemed really strange for him to not be getting his appetite back after he had been done the antibiotics (it was at least a week after they finished and still was being extra picky). We started the probiotics and a day or 2 later he was back to eating normally.

So yesterday we had our first oops as parents of 3 kids. I was feeding DS in the bedroom, DH was changing DD2 in her room and DD1 decided she'd go outside and play. With no pants on; I'm talking a t-shirt and bare ass. DH heard the door shut and ran downstairs and found her outside. Apparently she "met some nice people on the sidewalk who said hi" to her. (To clarify, they were on the sidewalk, she was inside our fenced yard still on the porch when he caught her). God damn kids are slippery. And cue strange discussion of why we need both permission and pants to exit the house. FML.
She never would have left the house without permission before so I think this was another way for her to test her independence like she has lately. Just wish she had done it with some pants on.
Those people in the sidewalk were probably like uh...do we need to call the cops? My biggest fear of 3 kids was being outnumbered I just didn't think this would be the first test of that. smh.
littleredfish, OMG I needed that giggle. If they have kids, I'm sure they appreciated it too! Sounds like she's really testing boundaries, and you guys are amazing handling three at once- at least YH heard her and ran!

Mine went from 2 teeth to 10 in literally the last 2 weeks, so sleep isn't a thing at my house either. 😕 And judging by last night there has to be some more molar or canine action going on too. 😴
