Hi Edz, try not to worry so much. Let go of what W may be doing and thinking right now, and just plan a nice weekend with S.

I think boys often put on some weight at S's age. SS did anyway. I think it's a combo of less romping about, screen time, and just being a bit greedy (with unhealthier foods in SS's case.)

For a while, we just made sure we only had healthy stuff around, did some portion control, and always had salad on the side (which had to be eaten before - modest - seconds.) We also got him up, off the screen and out swimming, cycling or other active stuff. He soon seemed to get back to a healthier weight, and if they shoot up in height too, as SS has, that also seems to even things out.

The thing we were most concerned about was healthy habits really. Getting enough exercise, eating well, treats in moderation and so on....

Anyway Mrs F - get off your soapbox! Have a good weekend Edz, and no worrying about W okay?? ((Edz))
