Connor Update

For those of you following Connor's food drama, here's the latest. Unfortunately, the new food that we had Connor on didn't work out. We had him on it for three full weeks and during that time, he didn't gain an ounce. His consumption was at an all time high with a daily increase of 140-160 extra calories, but still no change on the scale.

I guess that just confirms that he does have a cows milk protein allergy and that his body is fighting off the food instead of absorbing it. The good news is that during the last three weeks he didn't lose weight, so we're right where we were at the beginning of the month. For the time being we're switching him back to the nasty Neocate and waiting for the doctors next orders.

Connor's 9 month check up in on Tuesday and we're still holding out of a good weigh in. Fingers crossed.
