I think it is a myth that solids help babies stay full for longer. Most solid foods are not as dense in calories as breastmilk or formula (with the exception of avocado.) I think the waking up at night to eat is pretty normal. I know lots of babies that do that at who are over 1 yr. I think it is pretty normal for babies to be hungry all of the time too...

hi, i became concerned about my 13 month old son after both his weight and height started falling on the growth curves. The doctor said he needed to eat more and recommended that i feed him a high calorie foods every two hours. I noticed after i started solids that my son started pooping much more frequently (4+ times per day) and sometimes after he...

Hi I posted a while about my 12 month old whose growth has gradually tapered off. Anyway we've been gluten free for about three weeks. Just a couple days after both my son and i went gluten free his stools became more solid (just 1 soft stool per day instead of 3 or 4 loose stools) athough they were still very frequent (4-6 times a day.) Then i accidently...

hi everyone, I am just posting to say that my son has been gluten free since sunday and i have been gluten free since yesterday. Prior to this, my son ate very little gluten anyway. Maybe three times a week at the most he would eat a few cheerios, a small amt of bread or a teething biscuit containing gluten. I was trying to keep wheat out of his diet...

Great to know. i won't worry then until i have a better reason. thanks everyone for the replies....i don't think it peels but maybe...

Hi I have itchy red bumps that often occur symmetrically on my elbows, calves, forearms and lower back. They do ooze when scrathed and get blistery sometimes. My doctor says it is excema. My son has been having very oily stools with poor growth and i have been wondering if he has celiacs so i have also started to wonder about my rash. The rash...

bad diarhea can cause low sodium levels because you lose electrolytes and water during bowel movements. When i tried to induce labor using castor oil i had horrible diarhea and my sodium levels were very low.

Did any other parents notice greasy stools in their babies (who eat solids) or toddler as a sign of celiacs disease? You can see my description above if you need a graphic description.

Hi thanks so much for your reply! It is so inspiring to hear that your son has improved after just a week of the gluten free diet! I am thinking we'll try it too. my son does not taste very salty so i'm hoping for celiac's or for the fact that i'm just imagining things! (but i don't want to be called crazy either) Thanks again for the response. I'd love...

Hi At age 9 months the doctor suggested that i start feeding my son a high fat diet so that he would gain more weight. He is now 12 months. He is still falling off the charts for weight (his rate of weight gain did not increase despite the high fat diet) and also now falling in length (he grew 1/2 a centimeter in length in three months). Our ped thinks...
