Ds is turning 4 yo and for the past 9 mos has had low iron stores, ped keeps telling us to add iron supplement, multi with iron, cut out milk, increase dietary iron, we keep doing this and iron stores still low. He is not anemic- it is just iron stores. I googled and found this pattern is found with ADHD. We have been worried about DS b/c he can not sit still, always jumping, shaking, can't deal with circle time, etc. Now to read this correlation I am wondering if any of you know anything about this. My ped seems to blow this off, but she has no answers for the low iron and just keeps telling me to give multi (which we already do). Any advice on who to see for a 2nd opinion? In Bklyn, btw. TIA

When I ride in a taxi cab with my DC I:
- Use a carseat
- Buckle him/her in his/her own seat
- Hold him/her on my lap
- I'd never ride in a taxi with my DC, it's much too dangerous!
