What did you or do you plan on asking at this appointment?

I only have should DS being taking vitamins and her thoughts on organic vs regular milk.  We currently do organic WCM

Re: Questions to ask at 15 month appt?

  • We have ours tomorrow morning. No clue what to ask either.

    "Is it normal for my 15 month old to tell me off?" might be one with the crazy tantrums she's been throwing lately! Lol

  • has your LO been screened for lead? I asked about that at my appt since it wasn't done at 12 months.  I also asked about fluoride since she doesn't drink water.

    why doesn't she drink water? she won't?
    nope, she only wants milk.

    DS was screened at his 12 month appointment, the doctor was concerned because we live in a house built in 1875 but thankfully the house was renovated a few years back by the previous owner.

    DS drinks a lot of water, so he gets a lot of fluoride but we do occasionally give him "Nursery Water"

    Why doesn't your daughter drink water?  Doesn't like the non-taste?

  • She just won't drink it from the cup.  As soon as she tastes it's water she'll ignore it.  On occasion we have watered down her milk, but if we put too much water in she can tell. 

     To be fair- I also hate drinking water and never drank it growing up.  Now I do drink it occasionally but only because I know it's good for me. but I still don't like it.

    @angelacz87 our pedi said for fluoride that she gets enough with the water we cook with since our tap water is fluoridated. 

    ETA: glad to know DD isn't the only non-water drinker.  She won't even take juice from a cup.  
  • I don't think we'll have any questions for our pediatrician. Ds2 seems to be on track. He went to the dentist back in August for his first appt. We do a liquid vitamin, usually mixing with his milk. He had screenings at his one year appt for lead and anemia.

     
  • Once Pedi asked me all her questions, I didn't have anything else to ask. LOL pedi said that as long as she is eating a variety of foods, a multi vit would be making me feel better more than doing alice any good. She wanted to see around 5 words. Well, communication. Even if it's only words I fan understand. She wanted to make sure alice is communicating. She wanted to make sure alice was drinking between 3-5 cups a milk a day and wetting/dirtying appropriately.

    I did ask about wonky poops. She said toddler poop is kind of a roller coaster ride. As long as its a color found in nature thats NOT bright red blood or black meconium all is well.
