Guest guest Posted February 24, 2005 Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 I rarely get a chance to brag on here about an accomplishment, so I am excited to announce that has gained 6 lbs. in a month! Yes, I wrote that right... How did we do this? We increased 's calories via g-tube from 1500/day to 2250/day (4 cans to 6 cans of Nutren 1.5) & put him on continuous feeds during the day as well as the night. I looked back at 's growth record, and he has been in the same weight range since he was 8 years old (that was 3 years & 4 months ago folks!). I would still like him to gain a few more pounds & then I guess we will need to back off on some of his feeds. I need to contact Dr. H & ask or her advice at this point. Does anyone know what the best way to contact her is? I called her & left a message twice last month, and never got a return call. Has anyone had success in emailing her? Kim C.
