Delicious may have been too strong of a word, It's not like sitting down with a bag of Ruffles and cheese dip. But they're still good and easy to make when you have a craving for chips and don't want to be a fat ass.

She didn't have any side effects from it and once she hit 5'2 she stopped taking it. For girls once you get your period your bones began to fuse and you're not going to getting any taller.

If it turns out he's producing adequate amounts of growth hormone and he's just naturally short I'm not sure the doctor would still give him HGH. But I have heard of them prescribing it anyway if they think a boy isn't going to make it to an acceptable height. I know some short guys and they seem to be fine with it, but I imagine it kind of sucks to be a man and only 5'4.

Huh. Yeah, I wouldn't mind being a short young woman (5'2" is okay)...I bloomed REALLY early so I was taller than most everyone I knew (it seemed) for several years. It sucked. I wanted to be short and petite.
Apparently he's 3⁄4 of the way through puberty (according to the doctor--my son was NOT happy having his dick checked). His puberty IS late so maybe there's hope for him. I just hope he reaches his dad's height. I'm going to get him to that stupid endocrinologist asap.
I've been playing with some of the "ideal weight calculators" out there and some of them say his weight should be around 115 (some say more, some say a little less). 86lbs. Jesus H. Christ.

Thank God. I'm going to quit worrying so much. I'm still taking him to the endocrinologist as soon as possible but maybe he won't be nicknamed after one of the seven dwarfs after all. Then again...
