We went to the new GI doctor last week and we REALLY like her. She had a great attitude...to sum it up..."What do we do to get rid of the tube?" Yea, that is what we want to know and do. Our last doctor had not wanted us to start any types of food yet, but this doctor said to jump right in so that is what we have done. We have tried apples and pears so far; I think apples are a little strong for Keegan, but pears go down a little better. Of course now Riley wants to eat what Keegan does, goofy girl!! We are also trying a different formula in the bottle; she said some kids will not drink what they get through the tube. So far not really seeing a difference there but we are still hopeful. We are to try those 2 things for the next month and go back for a follow up and we will go from there. The good news is that he is gaining weight nicely and looking pretty chunky these days.
