Board Review
A word from the
esteemed
Dr. Shannon Wahl
“So much
development [on the
boards]. You must
know in DETAIL all
milestones as there
are multiple questions”
“…and when you think
you know them
all…keep studying
because these
questions really suck.”

Bridge of 3
A full term female is born weighing 3kg
• She comes to the office at 2 weeks old
and weighs 2.8 kg. What is your next
step?
– Reassurance. Babies may not regain birth
weight until 3 weeks old.
– Reassess in one week!
A full term female is born weighing 3kg
• She’s at the 50% for length & head
circumference.
• What’s her length?
– 50 cm!
• What’s her head circumference?
– 35 cm!
A full term female is born weighing 3kg
• What would she weigh at 5 months?
– 6 kg
– Babies double their weight by 5 months!
• What would she weight at one year?
– 9 kg
– Babies triple their weight by one year!
Weight
• Average birth weight is 3.25 kg.
• It’s OK to lose 10% of your birth weight.
– This occurs by age 1 week
– By 2 weeks, you should be back to birth
weight.
• Babies double their weight by 5 months
(Latin babies with abuelas may do this
by three months)
Wait!
• Babies triple their birth weight by 1 year.
• They quadruple their birth weight by 2 ½
years.
Case Scenario
• A 3 year old child presents for WCC
• His weight is at the 50%.
• His height has fallen from the 25% to
below the 5th percentile.
• PE is otherwise normal and FHx is
noncontributory.
• Why is this child short?
You want choices?
•
•
•
•
•
Poor nutrition
Constitutional growth delay
Growth hormone deficiency
Neglect
Lack of high heels
Growth Hormone Deficiency
• The usual case scenario is a child that
is gaining weight ok but is short.
– Family history is non-contributory
(Constitutional Growth Delay)
– Weight is maintained (Nutrition, Neglect)
• Hypothyroidism could also present with
the same case scenario.
Which is the most concerning?
• A 6 month old who doesn’t turn to voice
OR
• A 14 month old who doesn’t walk
• The 6 month old! This requires intervention!
• The 14 month old may just be at the end of
normal for gross motor development
Which is the most concerning?
• A 4 year old who stutters
OR
• A 3 year old with unintelligible speech
• Stuttering can be normal up to 4 years
old and parents should be reassured.
• A 3 y.o. w/ unintelligible speech is VERY
concerning & warrants a full evaluation.
Which is the most concerning?
• A child who lines up toys (that’s all he
ever does!)
OR
• A little boy who plays with Barbies
• Compulsive behaviors such as lining up
toys as only form of play should be a tip
off for autism.
Autism
• Screening needs to start at 9mo
– Goal is to identify ASD before 18mos
• Parental concerns
–
–
–
–
lack of eye contact and joyful expressions
lack of to-and-fro pattern of speech
lack of recognition of parents’ voice
keen awareness for environmental sounds but doesn’t
respond to name
– delayed onset of babbling past 9 months of age
– Decreased/absent use of gestures (waving, pointing,
showing) & lack of expressions such as "oh oh" or "huh"
True or False
• The mom of a 6 year old child is worried
because the kindergarten teacher
mentioned that the child often mistakes
the letters B and D.
• True or false: This child likely has
dyslexia.
– FALSE!
– This can be a normal finding up to age 7!
