Don’t feel bad he will pack in the weight again especially once his eating picks back up

Yeah i know its just that before surgery happened he was already becoming a picky eater so i just wanna make sure he is getting enough.

@hbowen2018, wow that gives me hope on that! Was he just a picky eater?

He wasnt at first, but a few months after he turned 1 getting him to eat meats, potatoes.. He would eat his greens and his fruits but that was about it. Hes doing better now but sometimes getting him to eat any meat is still hard 😏

Oh wow thats good!! Thanks 😘
Kayla ·
Let me know how it goes! I bought mine off of amazon
Kayla ·
Oh man ya that’s a lot of weight to loose poor guy. My son has always been smaller but sucks that he can’t get the high fats from cow milk and on top of that picky so I’m going
To try that and hope it puts on a pound or two. I also heard that! The one I bought has really good reviews and is healthy as can get!

Yeah he went through a lot and i feel so bad looking at how skinny he is now. But thank you sooo much for your recommendation 💕
Kayla ·
I would try pediasure or the one I showed you, they make a milk one also. How much weight did he loose?
JM··
Мама двоих (младенец)
I heard pediasure has worse ingredients so i would most likely go for the pedia smart. He lost like 3-4 pounds
Kayla ·
Awe does he do good with milk and everything? Is he restricted to not eat any certain foods?
JM··
Мама двоих (младенец)
Yeah he is good with milk and everything. No he isnt. Dr said he can eat whatever he likes.
Kayla ·
@momsrmagical, did you give it to your daughter only once a day? Also how old was she when you gave it to her?

I gave it to her twice a day then she had just turned two
Kayla ·
Can I ask why your son had surgery?
JM··
Мама двоих (младенец)
He was born with gastroschisis and he had to have a second surgery done because his tummy wasnt okay. Ive never given it to my daughter
Kayla ·
It’s this one you have to order it online and it’s actually way better then pediasure
Kayla ·
So he’s 22 months right?. I would try pediasure but ask dr first to make sure he can have it I’m pretty sure they can after 1. My son is 19 months and is 20lbs he lost weight for A week due to a huge stomach bug going around he threw up for two days and the poops for 3 days it was horrible and on top of that he’s picky and has food allergies

Ohhhh wow thats a lot. Okay yeah because pediasure has so much sugar it concerns me. Where can i order this? I might just get this one too!!
Kayla ·
My son is also on the small size due to being picky eater. I just ordered a non dairy boost to try with him. How old is your son and how much does he weigh now?
JM··
Мама двоих (младенец)
He is 1 yr 10 months and he is probably 20 pounds right now because he didnt eat for a whole week at the hospital due to surgery.
JM··
Мама двоих (младенец)
Which non dairy boost is it?
cantdeletebutimgone·
Pediasure helped my dd gain 5lbs in a month

You weren’t concerned about the sugar in it?

@kiki221 not at all, we already aren't big sugar (sweets) people so a little extra sugar didn't hurt.
