anyone using microlipid instead of cream?

[Guest guest]

Ok, first I want to say that I am trying to keep up with you guys

but you move to fast for me.. hehe.. Sorry if i'm missing people,

i'm not doing it purposely!

Now, to my question. Kalob is g-tube/oral feeding. We kept the g-

tube although he was about ready to have it taken out, because of

the diet. Since he has the g-tube, the dietician is using microlipid

instead of cream in the majority (90%) of his meals because she

feels that it is better.

So, to the point. Kalob was throwing up with the microlipid when we

ended the diet the last time, that is a big reason we just let it go

(long story). Now he is throwing up part of the time when we give it

to him again. Does anyone else notice this? Which is really better?

Kalob LOVES the cream so i'm considering asking for more meals using

that rather than the lipid, but i'm wondering if anyone else has

experience with this??

BTW, Kalob is doing so much better! Yesterday he ate 3 full meals

and a snack!! Although he did throw up the last meal, but I think it

was just because of the microlipid, I am experimenting with ways to

give it. Right now I think were gonna do gravitiy drip with water

about 1/2 hour after meals, but that's sooo long. You do what you

have to eh?

On the diet, you do what works. That is rule #1.
