49. How to know when to start caring about weight conversations at the pediatrician office

As an adult, you can choose when and how to discuss your weight with your doctor. But, growing children need to have their weight checked regularly to monitor their development and overall health. So, how do you avoid putting too much weight on the number and letting your child get wrapped up in diet culture? In this episode, Beth and I discuss some factors to consider and ways that you can choose to navigate the weight conversation at the pediatrician's office.

Resources mentioned in this episode:

• Sample card to hand to your child’s doctor.
• Sample Script of a conversation to have with your teenager prior to a visit.
• Podcast Episode 3 ways to handle weight talk at your doctor’s office (meaning how to handle this same topic as an adult).
