Elizabeth's GI appt


An update......

After Lizzie's 2 week check up...mommy was noticing some same signs of a milk allergy like her big brother had. Instead of calling the pediatrician and going to them...she decided to call the gastroenterologist in Boston and head there because of Evan's past experience. We got an appt. the next day and we headed down. They tested her and she is positive for a milk intolerance NOT the allergy which is more severe. So..we were told to put her on a special formula to make her tummy feel better. We are unsure if she has reflux yet but we go back in a month and will address it then. Signs point to yes for reflux but she is not as uncomfortable as Evan was. So far with the new formula...she is feeling better but still having some rough patches. She weighed in at 9lb.7oz. at the GI doc....so she is growing real nicely!
