DS stool wasn't greasy, but it was looser, more frequent -- sometimes I'd change his diaper 3 times during a diaper change. It was yellowish green and the consistency of cake frosting.</end quote></div>



Oh really...hmmm yeah she doesnt go that often, sometimes she will not go for up to 48 hours...but usually its once a day

My daughter was diagnosed at 5 weeks of age due to failure to thrive. But, she also had an undiagnosed milk allergy. Refused to nurse or take a bottle, fussy, just like you describe. She would also projectile vomit. Not sure if the formula you mentioned is for milk allergy. We used nutramigen for the milk allergy. It took a few weeks for her to get back to eating after we switched. Just an idea....Sharon, mom of Sophia, 8 and Jack, 5 both with cf, Grant, 6 months no cf

Sorry for the slow response. Paige is super cranky tonight!

When I say greasy, I mean it looked exactly like grease pouring out of her bottom! It was so bad, and looked like the grease you get when you make spaghetti <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif" border="0">

Hey thanks for the response
she has never spit up but maybe little tiny amounts less than a teaspoon full, except the first week she was born she had to episodes of spitting up mucus that was still in her lungs...Alimentum is for babies with milk and soy allergies, they wanted to put her on Progestimil, but that was like 50 dollars a can and he said Alimentum was just as good...but even on the Alimentum she is not eating well nor is she gaining weight, which makes me feel as though i gave up BF for nothing
