[tri-med] puberty

I know a while back I had posted something about Morgan possibly going thru 
early puberty.  I had noticed a change in hair, mainly some pubic hair.  I 
don't know why I didn't put that together with his face breaking out so bad.  
We talked to the geneticist about it and he definitely thought Morgan might be 
starting puberty.  They didn't feel, at his age, their would be much to do for 
it.  They talked to a ped. endocrinologist for us and he said although 8 yrs. 
was early it wasn't too terribly soon.  The main problem might be that Morgan's 
growth would stop sooner.  This might have something to do with the slight 
increase in his scoliosis, too, if he has been going thru a growth spurt.  I 
know Karen mentioned that at one time she thought Aussie Alex might be heading 
into early puberty, but things slowed down for him.  Has anyone else had any 
experience with this?
