So our son had a Dr. vis it on Thursday which went ok but coud ahve been better. He gained weight but only about 8oz in 2 weeks so they were not overy happy with that, we have to go for a weight check in 2 weeks. The Dr. said his lungs sounded very good and unless his throat cuture grows something he doesn't need antibiotics, yay.This is the not great part the dietician part. She once again was disappointed that he wasn't gaining enough or eating as much as she wanted. I told her, "I'l tell you right now he never drinks 24oz of formula. It's not going to happen." I don't think she liked that but oh well. She was talking about changing more stuff and I told her "You know genetics are working against him too. My husband can't gainn weight to save his life, he's 6'1" and only weighs 150lbs."She said yea well he doesn't have CF. We don't know that for sure we're waiting to get genetic testing and besides did she forget about genetics. So she changed formula to Alimentum hoping he woud take more. He's been on it for 3 days and is taking less, stooling more, having looser stools, and has been more cranky so obviously that didn't work. She also wanted me to space out feedings more but I'm not going to starve him. Sorry I just can't stand here she doesn't listen and keeping changing stuff and it doesn't usually help. At least the Dr. agreed with me keeping the Activia in the bottles and upping the daily salt.
