My 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.
