Re: side effect of NV?

[Guest guest]

Poor baby!!! How did you get him home without it getting all over your car?!!!

I have your last message below where I see you did mention loose stools. Mild

loose stools when first starting fish oils or NV are normal, but what you are

describing in this most recent message is not.

I would check with his pediatrician but it's possible his system is more

sensitive and you should go back to the half dosage you had him on prior or even

just start on just 1/4 of a scoop. The less you use the easier to get it in I'm

sure anyway. But again first check with his pediatrician as I know in the past

with fish oils it's not considered a big deal for the loose stools.

It does appear you have already seen numerous surges so it would be a shame to

have to stop. Since even on the lower dosage you and the SLP were happy about

the positive surges again perhaps that will be the answer for awhile until his

system is used to NV. There is a natural detox that happens in the first few

weeks, http://pursuitofresearch.org/science.html but typically the stools will

be soft and foul smelling -not loose. Loose is possible, but again mild loose.

Just one other thing...did he just start the fish oils recently too? Also is he

just 3 years old or is he closer to 4?

LOL....it did get all over the back of my car where I was changing him.  I had

to pull the carpet out of the back and leave it ouside to clean.  Ugh.  It

really was a mess!  He is almost 3.  We started fishh oil 2 weeks before

starting NV and did not have any negative side effects.  I am thinking about

adding the 1 EPA to the 2 EFA's.  What do you think?  I am going back to just

doing the NV cookies and letting it slowly get into his system - stools were

loose but not " blow outish. "   He is just starting preschool so I don't want to

cause him stress with the loose stools on top of all the changes already.
