He is officially 34#!

thepeach80 · Feb 21, 2006

AJ went to the DR today for his pre-op physical (he's getting tubes next week) and sure enough, he really is 34#. That's like 2# in maybe 3 wks! Him and Evan are growing like weeds (Evan has gained 4# in 2.5 mos).

I can't keep up w/ all the new clothes. So, we have another # before we have to turn him. I'm thinking of turning him in the next weeks as long as the weather stays nice or should I wait till 35#? I just don't want him to go over 35# (he was 32# forever though), or would it be that bad if he did and was still rfing?

I think its ok to turn him soon, you made it past 2.5yo! My DS was 29m when he hit 33lbs and I was so sad!!!! He was too long to be in the scenera so buying it for another 2lbs wasnt doable

If he wasnt so long he could still be in the scenera as he is 34lbs clothed

IT seems like we made it 2.5 yrs, but honestly, he's been ffing almost as long as he's been rfing. He was ffing from 11-26 mos and then from 26-32.5 mos (now) he's been rfing.

I'm just hoping it doens't snow again. IT's gone now, but when it snowed last week I was so happy he was still rfing!

I would only push it in a seat braced and tethered, I wouldn't want to risk it, kwim? That said, I have Joyjoy still RF at 32 1/2 lbs in her MA, but there is not a chance it could rebound & over-rotate. I'd be more worried about my son sitting in the seat her MA is braced against!

We're getting a Touriva next week. LOL

Ohh yeah I forgot about that you turned him back. I agree with the PP though, Id only push it in a braced and/or tethered seat

O.K. I guess I'll turn him today then. B/c the Radian takes up so much room rfing, AJ's AO has to be behind the driver and since I'm only 5'3" bracing isn't available if I'm driving. lol Of course that seat doesn't tether either. The end of an era I suppose.

We all knew it would happen eventually. lol

Well, after almost 24hrs of illness, he's back to 31# (or so my scale says w/ no clothes on) so maybe we'll just leave him that way for another week or so. They should weigh him on Tues at the hospital so we'll see what that says.

poor baby!! Hope he feels better soon! Gregory (ds#2) had tubes put in and his adenoids removed at 14-15 mos, and it was GREAT. He wasn't walking or talking before they went in, after he was walking within a week and had a dozen new words.

He is officially 34#!
