Ah well back from the paed.
The good news is that munchkin weighed in at 4530. Which is an increase from 4270 last Tuesday so I am happy with that.
We still have to continue with the Losec for another week. If there is no improvement in Lucie's eating then, we have a prescription for some formula called Neocate - lactose free stuff I think, as the paed thinks that this might be the cause of her bottle refusal. Then if that doesn't work we could be looking at another 2 week hospital stint, when she will be tube fed and then relearn to eat again if she associates eating as a traumatic thing. I really [-o< we don't have to go to this last option. So now at each feed time I am going to try and be really calm, relaxing and reassuring, so she begins to enjoy eating more. Poor little thing. I think I need to go and cry.
