Three months of Genotropin injections

Today marks the third month of Genotropin injections for the boy. He has grown a full two inches since November. We just measured him again. He grew. He didn't grow as much as he had in the previous months, but he did grow. His squirmy self was very hard to measure by the door. I've mentioned that he was 39 inches at his Dr. appointment. I'd guess he is closer to 40 inches now than he was then. He has grown and we are very pleased. I don't know what I expected sitting in this seat three months ago. I guess I wanted the boy to get his growth on par with others his age and then be done with the shots. Well he has grown but he isn't near average for his age. He was in the 13th percentile at the last appointment. That is way below average. His mom and I are average size. We don't have any genetic history of dwarfism in our families so 13th percentile isn't quite where he should be. He isn't normal with his blood levels of hormone. He has come way up but he still has a climb to get to normal levels. My pipe dream of giving a few months of shots and then just moving on isn't going to come to fruition, but the shots have helped. Hopefully the boy will continue to grow. He is a joy to be around. He is the cutest kid in the world. I know every dad would say that. All of them would be lying, I am telling the truth. I'll hang my close on this line....................
