Guest guest Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 Hey all- Just needed to vent. My son has not been eating well for the last couple of days and yesterday he only ate 6 oz total and would scream if I even put a bottle near his mouth. Yes I am a first time mom so maybe it wasn't that big of a deal but as we all know it is very important that he eats. I called the pediatrician's office after hours and a nurse called me back. She asked me the usual questions and then she asked if he had any diagnosed conditions. I explained that Isaac was full term but was small and the genetics specialist has said that he is either IUGR or has Rusell-Silver Syndrome. Guess what she said... " He has Rusell Stover what? " Honestly...was she serious? How is it possible that a supposedly trained nurse would ask if my son had Rusell Stover disease? I don't expect her to know what RSS is but please don't be a smart alec! Thanks for listening..I feel better.
