Document Summary

Our child is lagging behind and is not growing at a regular pace along with all the kids his age. His head and his facial features are very small. He does(cid:374)"t ha(cid:448)e a spe(cid:272)ial fa(cid:448)o(cid:396)ite toy a(cid:374)d he likes to ju(cid:373)p f(cid:396)o(cid:373) a(cid:272)ti(cid:448)ity to a(cid:272)ti(cid:448)ity (cid:448)e(cid:396)y (cid:395)ui(cid:272)kly. Whe(cid:374) he is(cid:374)"t u(cid:374)de(cid:396)stood he gets (cid:448)e(cid:396)y a(cid:374)g(cid:396)y. He (cid:272)a(cid:374) shake his head fo(cid:396) (cid:862)yes(cid:863) a(cid:374)d (cid:862)(cid:374)o(cid:863) He has a hard time interacting with other children without a problem. I have many concerns for our child regarding the fact that he is not growing at a regular pace. It concerns me because typically children at their one year check-up because he is also lagging in the whole weight situation too. He is not catching up to the normality of other children at this age. He does(cid:374)"t (cid:374)ap (cid:396)egula(cid:396)ly a(cid:374)d does(cid:374)"t sleep (cid:373)u(cid:272)h du(cid:396)i(cid:374)g the (cid:374)ight (cid:449)hi(cid:272)h (cid:396)e(cid:373)ai(cid:374)s (cid:449)ith hi(cid:373) (cid:271)ei(cid:374)g (cid:272)(cid:396)a(cid:374)ky during the day time.
