Re: huge gains, came out of nowhere

[Guest guest]

oops, meant to add that a 2 week course of flagyl was the best thing

that ever happened to our boy. He has had poops every day now for

well over 6 weeks. I know many of you might not be keen on flagyl but

for some reason it worked well for our boy. THis has never happened

before.

Great news!

I am just trying to figure out what lead to the spurt. We had a LOT of

sun last week. Could he have spent more time outside soaking up Vitamin D?

Whatever it was, I am as pleased as punch for you!

Thank you and for your other post as well.

I dont know what it was. Funny enough he was like this as well, when

i was away for a week in February and there was no sun, so i dont

know.

I think its a culmination of blocks fitting into place. We help our

children put the blocks in a pattern and hope they will build their

own tower beside our own. I really dont know though. Its a mystery.

Flagyl works well here also, i think it sort of gives the gut a fresh

start, gets rid of all the stuff causing problems IMO. Obviously not

something you want to use too often though.
