quick question

Maybe it's stupid...

Sam isn't allowed to nurse 6 hours before he's sedated but can have clear liquids up to 2 hours before.  He's been refusing pedialyte so I was going to try some juice.  He's never had any so what do I buy?  

Re: quick question

  • I'm surprised that he's not allowed to nurse for 6 hours prior to the procedure.  Breast milk is considered a clear liquid. 

    I would go probably go with apple and dilute it.

  • If he hasn't had solids before... I'd get the organic apple juice (Earth's Best and Apple and Eve sell some for kids) and cut it with water, so it doesn't shock his system. Apples are A-OK first foods, so I'd do that (instead of a combo juice).

    Yeah it's stupid.  I've had that debate with the doc and got nowhere.  :P  Headed to the store! 

  • Yea, when C was scheduled for an MRI he couldn't bf for 8 hrs prior!  He wasn't allowed anything and he was 3 months!?!?!?  

    I would go with apple.
