If they are growing then don't get hung up on the curve. Does this specialist have lots of preemie patients?
It's a preemie doctor. They only see him once a month, I think. Her regular ped is much easier to deal with.
They add a calorie booster to his formula--no idea what it is. He's pretty much over the reflux--than goodness! It was just his immature sphincter. (HA! I'm 12.) So he's off meds for that and doesn't barf at all anymore.
I have a feeling he's just going to be tiny, which is fine by her and us. Even the therapists are impressed with his development so it's all good. I'll talk to my sister about the oils. Sounds like a natural option, really. I wonder if goat's milk or rice milk might work? She's not too eager to experiment at the moment but as he gets older she might be will to try.
