Re: Iron test question
Either, both, ugh. We have his 3 year visit today. I hate this test. They squeeze his finger so hard, he failed the iron once and so he's had it twice since then and I thought we were in the clear, but I guess not :(

Re: Iron test question
It's supposed to be every year until age 5 I think. It was horrible for DD at her 3 year visit. Thankfully ped said we can skip it this year since her tests have always been normal.

Re: Iron test question
They didn't do it. They said after two normal tests, he doesn't need it until older unless there is a concern. Besides the flu shot, it was a pretty painless visit.
