SHE IS NORMAL...

Lilly has had a great day! She went in for her upper GI which showed that she had reflux and that was about it. Then we met with Genetic People, who wanted some blood to check for some rare diseases, but more than likely, come back normal. For her afternoon feed the doctors switched her to 50ccs every four hours and the very first feed she took 30ccs (the best in quite a while). She and I talked with a Child Psycologist who, turns out, said she is a normal active little girl and just doesn't like the taste of the formula. Finally, the last feed of the night she took the WHOLE bottle by mouth!!!!!!!! You go girl!!! The doctor had even suggested possibly going home tomorrow, but we all know how that works! They had put her on Pediasure with fiber for three reasons: 1) it is higher in fat, 2) tastes better, and 3) has the same calories (30 cal per ounce) as the formula had. Well, FIBER makes you poop and well, let me just say she has had to change clothes six times today, not to mention that she is still puking. So guess what? More than likely not coming home tomorrow! They put her on Pediasure without fiber now to see how tomorrow goes. Besides that, she is now 5.52 kilos (12 pounds 2ounces!) and going strong! As soon as we get the fiber in line, we sould be on our merry way!
