[blparent] tonsils and hyperactivity.

[Veronica Smith]

Did you see at the bottom of this article, it said tonsils come in all
sizes, some big, some small?

Hmm. Like I mentioned before my leaning is to wait since he rarely get
infections. He does get ear and sinus but, not all the time and has never
had a throat infection. His tonsils go almost all the way across his throat.
Not quite touching. His biggest obstacle is eating but, with smaller
portions more often at least til they shrink a bit when he's older may ease
his frustration. He gets so discouraged with eating sometimes we have to
feed him just to get food into him. He's not under weight at all cause I
make sure he eats even if I have to blend his veggies in a smoothie. I'd
rather wait and see if nature takes it's course and they shrink and if not
we could do the op when he's older. However the hyperness may be do to
sleeping trouble. We don't generally check on him at night since he's older
so not sure how much sleep he's actually getting in the night.. He has his
movies so if he does wake at night he just watches til he falls asleep
again. Most times he doesn't bother leaving his bed let alone waking us up.
He's very independant and it's not like he couldn't wake us he certainly
could but, he just doesn't. We are having a camp weekend where he will be in
the room with us so I'm hoping then to get a better handle on how he's
sleeping. If he is having trouble then a doc visit will be very soon if not
we'll likely wait since we can combat the eating problem.
