We are left scratching our heads, if Kara's blood work shows no huge issues, why is she so lethargic? It is her innate nature to be a couch kartoshka? I do not feel like it is normal for a young child to want to lie down so much. I assumed her lack of energy was from iron deficiency, and prayed it was nothing worse than that. TSH normal in lower midrange, though I am wondering why the pediatrician did not order T-3 and 4 tests too.
Moms out there, what else should we look at for Kara and should we assume she is worn out from the heat?
Meghan and Amanda's blood work was also all normal, some low end, but normal. Amanda having the highest counts, makes sense, she gets sick less often than our other two little girls.
