Good News
The GI appointment went really well. When weighed without clothes Robbie is still in the 3rd percentile. Dr Bornstein is unconcerned about that, according to him people with hypotonia are always low weight because the low muscle tone. Apparently Robbie has a good amount of fat just not the weight that comes from muscle. After lots of questions and checking him over we saw the dietitian. Apparently his diet is precisely what it should be excepting the formula. Robbie will now be on Pediasure or an equivalent, we will have to experiment and see what he likes. That will double the calories in his liquids. So . . . all is going really well! Hopefully this will add a little more to his weight. :)
