Guest guest Posted November 25, 2002 Report Share Posted November 25, 2002 well he is just gettin beast milk and thats it!! he is also on enzymes with every feed, which I give through a sirange with breast milk into his mouth. I take many supplmenmts my self so he gets it in the milk. Liam is 13pd 13 oz last week thursday, he was born at 7 pd 15 oz. He is now taking a herb which is talked about on another message bored to increase absorbtion. Soon I will start him on juiced organic carrort juice to get more beta carotene so that he can convert it to vitamin A in his liver. Will do this through the medicine dispenser. He had vitamin levels checked and he was down on vitamin E and D so we are going to start micelle Vitamin E and I am buying a water soluble A from the health shop. I havent had to give him any extra fomulas or calories, and I figure that breast milk is the best sort of fat for baby and whole food. Cows milk products have large protiens that are hard for humans to digest and break down that is probably why there are so many allergies for milk becasue we are not cows!! although sometimes when breastfeeding a baby you feel like a cow! RIGHT?? LOL . Anyway we should keep in touch maybe send some photos My private e mail is smoneill@... mum to baby Liam and to Angel Lily who died of CF at 8 days old, and wife to wonderful friend Re: was: RE: Attendance Rewards > > hi marian > Yes it is a beautiful time around 3 months. > Can I ask what sorts of thing you are doing for joshua at the moment in > regards to supplements and so forth?? > thanks you > > ps how heavy is he?? > > ------------------------------------------- The opinions and information exchanged on this list should IN NO WAY be construed as medical advice.

Guest guest Posted November 28, 2002 Report Share Posted November 28, 2002 Thanks n, I just bought the ones that look like Jelly and you squish them is to cover the opening. I know she'll let me do it okay as she cries with the pain in her ears. She is a great little swimmer though, she can swim nearly 25mtrs freestyle - do I sound proud? But most importantly she loves it. She was great today. I had to take her with me to my Gastro. appt. and she was an angel. Then she played after school cricket at school (she's the only girl on the team) and she was good there also. Its a pleasant surprise. Now 2 1/2 hours in the cinema will be the test.LOL (Australia) in Australia Thank you for the update on Eilish. They can make special ear plugs made to the shape of her ears to really seal the water out; our young child with cystic fibrosis had these as she had tubes in her ears. She hated being required to wear a nose plug because of the tubes, but it all worked and SHE WENT ON SWIMMING AND STILL DOES! Best of luck to Eilish! Love and courage to you, n Rojas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 30, 2002 Report Share Posted November 30, 2002 n, Liam is a fanatic on Harry Potter. He's read the first two books and will start the third soon. He sat there wide eyed and didn't peep. As we were leaving he asked when we were coming back to see it again. We saw the first one 5 times in the cinema in 3 weeks then got a pirated copy (ssshh!) and have seen it dozens and dozens of times. So we'll do the same with this one. Re: Harry Potter - Not Cf Related/JULIE I went with grandchildren, aged 8 and 4--girls; they kept saying things like, " Cool, " " WoW, " and " Neat " throughout. Would have scared the socks off me at age four--but that WAS clear back during WWII! Thank you for telling us how much Eilish enjoyed this; I assume that Liam did, as well. Aren't kids just amazing?
