I've just noticed that my son's tummy is really round while his arms and legs are skinny. Is this normal?

He's going on 3. Is this the normal body type of a toddler?

You can check with the paed, next time you visit him/her.

Maybe it is nothing to worry about.

i guess you might need to go check with the doctor.
Might have the small tape worms.
Check with his appetite.
Observe if he go poo poo, and itchiness at his butt...

coz my son was like tat few months ago.
round tummy but arms n legs are so tiny n skinny.
he dont have much appetite...but once he eat...he eat alot...but soon, he dont feel well.
At 1st i tot he was playing with food or being naughty.
But, i guess it wrongly.

So soon i brought him to see a doc.
He said he need to eat deworm medicine.

after that, no more round tummy but her real tummy :@)
