prevent the constipation problem.

I am SO nervous to make this transition for fear of rocking our
boat!!!>>>>>>>>>>


Are you just seeing a Dietician or is she followed by a gastroenterologist
as well??   ( we see both)  the reason I ask is that they don't always tell
me the same thing, the dietician  is just looking at nutrition and the doc
is looking at the whole system. Enough water is a good thing, but you don't
want to give water if it is really formula and calories that are needed, and
there is water in formula.   Rebecca gets a fair amount of water, probably
between 500-750 mls a day and still requires a laxative daily


Don't fight with dragons, for you are crunchy and good with Ketchup.
