Meconium illeus at birth

Weston was also born with MI which lead to a meconium illeus. He was operated on at 6 hours old. He also has homogenous Delta 508. I also read a study that said that MI and digestive issues were more common in people with homogenous delta 508. Weston has two scars. One long one above his belly button and another small one where the illeostomy bag was.

About the vitamins. I don't know. He was failing to thrive for a long time, but then we got the diagnosis and started a new formula. He has been gaining ever since. He frequently still gets MI's and they perform gasto enema's to relieve him for these.
