we went to the GI doc at CHKD today..we love them..as we were leaving, ron and i were talking about how extremely lucky we have been to have had, since the beginning, doctors and nurses who truly care. it has been one of the greatest blessings, seriously. without this caring, and the ability to listen, and the above and beyond attitude we would not have the big ol healthy happy boys we are so lucky to have.
ANYWAYS..
the doctor has decided that we should try to start weaning off of Neocate (the ultra hypoallergenic formula they have been on). we will try to mix with another, less extreme hypoallergenic formula that we would slowly progress to. soooo, in doing this, he wants us to wait on starting solids..this way we can be sure if their is any reaction, what it is caused by.
he also recommended i really up the dosage of the gas drops we've been giving, and if that works..the world will seriously be a much more beautiful place..those poor boys have been miserable, especially at night (which in turn makes mommy miserable).
please work, please work!!
so, we will be giving this a try and going back in december to hopefully start solids then.
haha, and i asked him if the amount they have been eating is enough..he said 'oh yeah..their weight gain has been exceptional"
are you calling my boys fat? haha
im proud of my little fatties :)

I'm hoping this will help - and Mommy can get some much deserved rest. And they are not fat - they are just chunky monkeys!! Love those little guys.
I hope this works and your boys get to feeling much better :).
I can't wait to see those chubsters again. It's been so long, you might need to separate us, lol! I'm picturing them in their new lil outfits already...
