CarrieMy five year old son takes cortef. He takes 2 cc, 2 cc, 3cc and then 1/2 a florinef tablet in the morning and night. He currently weighs 65lbs. I am not sure how tall he is. He is close to the size of most of the kids in his class. He isn’t tall, but not the shortest either. I doubt he will ever be tall. His father his hispanic and is about 5’5. I am also about5’5, and I am the tallest female in my family , and there arent any tall males. He was very small until about age 4. When he was a year old he weighed 18 lbs. He was always very low on the growth charts until the last year. We have had several dose changes. I can tell that he has more of an appetite the larger his dose. I am on dex. because I am pregnant with a baby girl that has SWCAH. It caused initial weight gain, but now it has stopped. I have not gained a lb in three monthes. I am due in about 5 weeks. It also caused major stretch marks.
