Update on LO

Briar is doing good, gained 2 lbs in almost a month. Which brings him to 14 lbs 7 oz(5th percentile).We finally got into the GI Doctor and he wants to test him for CF since there is no reason he should not be gaining weight and has been congested since he birth. We were tested when we found out we were pregnant with DS2 because DS1 had some health problems(nothing life threatening or anything) when he was born and we found out DS1 is a carrier of CF. DH and I were test and we both game back negative for having the same gene that causes it. The Doctor weather be safe than sorry, I guess you never now and it could have been wrong(hopefully not). He put him on Nexium and Zyrtec. Also adding 1 Tbps of rice cereal per oz of formula.

Hopefully we will get some answers soon!

I'm sad that I missed all the drama today too!

Glad he's gaining weight and I hope the test comes back negative! Do you have it scheduled yet? We'll be thinking of you!

subliminalrabbit - Not yet, waiting for the hospital to call me once they get the order from the Doctor office. It should be down within the next 2 weeks because he said something about it being done by time we see him again, which is in 3 weeks. Don't remember how long it takes to get the results.
