She was happy even! And we could put her down! It was a blessed day. So I can truly fathom your relief.

I tried nursing him for about 2 weeks and he would projectile vomit each time, so we tried formula which worked better but he was still so colicky. After switching to Nutramigen it was night and day difference. He only stayed on it until he was about 6 months old and then we switched to normal formulaMelannihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18056873908537535506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1382136325822253148.post-10496785796916387202014-03-21T11:15:42.371-06:002014-03-21T11:15:42.371-06:00I googled "27 weeks pregnant with twins"...I googled "27 weeks pregnant with twins" and found your blog.

After getting an intestinal biopsy at Primary Children's, it was revealed that he's missing the Lactase Enzyme. He was born without producing this enzyme, which means he can have no form of milk at all- casein, whey, etc. I give Steoger'shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03540633885630073937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1382136325822253148.post-6035126196295201982014-03-12T11:34:29.665-06:002014-03-12T11:34:29.665-06:00You are speaking my language!!!
