Guest guest Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 Hi Everyone, We're amazed ... but after 2 1/2 years on GHT, Tyler is finally at the 25th percentile (same as his brother). He just turned 7, and is now 118.1 cms (about 46.5 " ) and 18.5 kgs (about 40 lbs). The weight gain has also been tremendous in the last few months after switching to a formula with 350 calories per can. He's still growing at 10-11 cms (4+ inches) per year on GH. He also loves flexing his biceps, which you can actually see. He plateaued in weight for awhile b/c we stopped the pump overnight. At age 6 1/2, he desperately wanted to be toilet trained for nighttime. Even though I know some families manage to do this with the pump, we couldn't get that to work for him. At some point, being age appropriate was more important to him psychologically. He gets 2 cans everyday and a third can once in awhile.

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 , That is awesome!! I'm sure my daughter can relate to the overnight wetting!! She has finally mastered toilet training (the bowel movements took her over 6 months to learn to control) and she gets very upset when she wakes up and is wet. But who wouldn't be with 800cc's in your system. We are working on it, but it is slow going. I am so glad Tyler is doing so well and that he was able to adjust!!!
