3 Year Old Dr Visit


Kibbie

Recommended Posts

Kibbie Contributor

My daughter had her 3 year old checkup yesterday her stats:

40lbs (97%)

39.5 inches (95%)

Healthy, soft tummy, blood work was great... normal little girl! Back where the Dr wanted her on the charts and everything! :) (she was 10lbs and 22 inches when she was born so big baby)

Now today we are dealing with a self glutening. She has a friend over and decided that she would just eat her friends macaroni and cheese for lunch (while I was cleaning up a broken glass that I dropped on the tile) Sometimes I wish she wasn't the type of kid that had to learn the hard way, but she is..... guess this will teach her!

Yay for her height and weight stats ~ those are fantastic!

And oh how frustrating 3 year olds can be when they decide to exercise free will.

Well, hopefully she'll learn a lesson out of it!

3 years old is too young to really grasp the idea of not eating gluten, don't you think? My son is 4 and while I think he's grasping it, if I weren't in the room, I think he'd eat gluten. Maybe next time have some gluten free mac n cheese for the friend! :)

And YAY for a healthy report. Isn't that the greatest feeling in the world for a Mommy? :) Great job, Mom!

      @glucel, I agree with @trents.  You can still do the AIP diet while taking aspirin.   I'm one of those very sensitive to pharmaceuticals and have gotten side affects from simple aspirin.  Cardiac conduction abnormalities and atrial arrhythmias associated with salicylate toxicity https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3952006/ Another part of the problem is that those drugs, aspirin and warfarin, as well as others, can cause nutritional deficiencies.  Pharmaceuticals can affect the absorption and the excretion of essential vitamins, (especially the eight B vitamins) and minerals.   Potential Drug–Nutrient Interactions of 45 Vitamins, Minerals, Trace Elements, and Associated Dietary Compounds with Acetylsalicylic Acid and Warfarin—A Review of the Literature https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11013948/   Aspirin causes a higher rate of excretion of Thiamine Vitamin B1.  Thiamine deficiency can cause tachycardia, bradycardia, and other heart problems.  Other vitamins and minerals, like magnesium, are affected, too.  Thiamine needs magnesium to make life sustaining enzymes.  Without sufficient Thiamine and magnesium and other essential nutrients our health can deteriorate over time.  The clinical symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are subtle, can easily be contributed to other causes, and go undiagnosed because few doctors recognize Thiamine deficiency disorders. Thiamine deficiency disorders: a clinical perspective https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8451766/ Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of vitamins and minerals.  Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals can boost absorption.   Our bodies cannot make vitamins and minerals.  We must get them from our diet.  The Gluten free diet can be low in Thiamine and the other B vitamins.  Gluten free processed foods are not required to be enriched nor fortified with vitamins and minerals like their gluten containing counterparts. You would be better off supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals than taking herbal remedies.  Turmeric is known to lower blood pressure.  If you already have low blood pressure, taking turmeric would lower it further. Curcumin/turmeric supplementation could improve blood pressure and endothelial function: A grade-assessed systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38220376/ I've taken Benfotiamine for ten years without any side effects, just better health.
