I have only connected this in the last 2 weeks although i told the dr. i thought this was a posability over 6mo ago. do you have any ideas i know someone her age needs more noutritionally than formula. can you tell me what was finally done for you. sorry about the rambling i am so excited to see my daughter well and need to know how to get the dr. to believe this IS the problem. I haven't seen her smile or laugh in so long till now and i just want it to keep going.
PLEASE give me any info you can we see him on friday

Hi,

As far as I remember, they just kept trying different feeds until they found one that worked (not very scientific, I know). However, two of my siblings have tested as having food allergies (to the same foods). I may also have been having motility and/or medication issues at the time...it can be complicated.

Good luck!
