My kids loved the pedialite popsicles.I remember when our pediatrician recommended the flavorless pedialite for when the kids were younger....I guess taste buds don’t really work at that young of an age.

Our daughter didn't have full-blown GERD but has had reflux her whole life.He has GERD, and any formula we give him, he immediately spits up until his next feed, where he restarts the process, thus he's not gaining weight, which opens a door of new problems.
The only advice I can offer is as tempting as it is, don't let him fall asleep while or right after he's eating. Keep him upright for a solid half an hour after. A little bit of rice cereal mixed in can help ease that too. he's over four months now, no?

He turned 4 months last week. We have a Dr. Appointment on Wednesday and that's exactly what we're going to ask in regards to rice cereal.

There's a major difference. My daughter had bronchiolitis, and it was brought on by RSV. I think at least half of all bronchiolitis cases actually stem from RSV, if I recall correctly. RSV put my daughter in DuPont Children's Hospital for 3 days on oxygen because her O2 saturation levels kept crashing.Bronchiolitis (not sure if there's a difference)

Seriously, keep a very, VERY close eye on his breathing. She went in the hospital shortly after her first birthday.

More lil Miss Franchise hockey talk:
“Dad were you watching when that guy for the Bruins flew over the St Louis Blues?”
“You mean Bobby Orr?”
“Yeah, Number 4 Bobby Orr.”
“No I was too little.”
Also announced she is working on her voice so she can have Mike Lange’s job when he retires.
Proud dad.

Ask her to come up with some catch phrases for Penguin goals and report back to us.

That’s not totally abnormal. My niece didn’t get her first tooth until she was around 14 months.

Thanks. Yeah we've been keeping a real close eye. I stayed home with him today to have a closer eye. He is happy and playful just gets coughing and sometimes is hard to stop. I think the worst is behind us now, at least I hope.There's a major difference. My daughter had bronchiolitis, and it was brought on by RSV.

Oh, I'm not concerned... I know they pop through in a range of ages. She was just so far ahead of the curve on most everything else, that it's been odd to see her on the late side of development with anything.That’s not totally abnormal.

Our daughter, God bless her, was a happy, playful little kid right up until she went. I remember the horrible nights hearing her cough all night and wanting so badly for her to be comfortable.

What made me kind of mad was the doctor was like 'not much we can do keep an eye on it if he gets worse call'...
if there's not much you can do now what are you gonna do if it gets worse?

I absolutely love talking hockey with my son. Yesterday I stopped at Dick's for his Learn to Play Hockey equipment. When I came home, it was like Christmas. My wife is going to have a hard time keeping him from running around the house in his pads today.
My 3 year old was so sad when I had to tell him there was nothing for him. Poor little dude. He's at that age now where everything big brother does, he wants to do.

This infuriates me because we're dealing with it right now. The doctor today say they want to do some gastro analysis because our kid isn't gaining weight. His neck strength isn't good enough because of his tummy time consists of vomiting on himself, so he doesn't get it as much as he should.What made me kind of mad was the doctor was like 'not much we can do keep an eye on it if he gets worse call'...

This happens I would imagine, frequently, but damned if I know because nobody gives us a straight answer on how to solve any of it.

lil mac had torticollis and was diagnosed around a month or two old. They referred us to Fayette County's early intervention team. He now has a therapist that comes every Wednesday to the house to do stretches, help him crawl to toys, and movements to strengthen his neck. He was getting a flat spot on his head because of sleeping on the one side all the time. We just re-upped another session, and hoping to avoid a helmet. Maybe there is something similar your pediatrician can recommend. This is all at no cost to us.This infuriates me because we're dealing with it right now.

So the bright spot is that he doesn't have a flat spot, he favors one side more than the other, little dude just doesn't get to do tummy time as much as he should.lil mac had torticollis and was diagnosed around a month or two old.

Our daughter had torticollis and plagiocephaly, resulting in both physical therapy and a helmet (which wasn't as bad as I thought it would be). You'll definitely want to find ways for him to get tummy time, because you could wind up going the PT route.

Soooo....my wife and I are gonna be blessed with a second child in September. It's not Facebook official yet (and won't be for another month probably), but I figure I can tell yinz
I'm very happy. We didn't know if we would be able to so exciting times. Our daughter will turn 6 a month after this one is born.

So that's on the table right now, if he doesn't improve in a month it's PT - and I have no idea what is associated with that.Our daughter had torticollis and plagiocephaly, resulting in both physical therapy and a helmet (which wasn't as bad as I thought it would be).
