We were back at the doctors office this week and couldn't do the hearing test because her ears were so bad still. They did a culture on the fluid draining from her ear and we should get the results from that anytime. In the mean time, they have her on a different ear drop which is clearing up the drainage...but who knows if it's actually fixing the problem! The ENT said we'd talk about taking her adenoids out in a couple of months. We are still waiting for the results of her allergy testing and will update as soon as we hear anything. Until then, we are trying to come up with new meal ideas with no milk or soy, which is very hard. She is tired of what she's been eating and we are having a hard time getting her to grow! In fact...she's just getting skinnier and skinnier. She actually fits into the size 2 diapers that she grew out of last June! Hopefully the allergist will be able to help us out with that. The ENT said to just give her a flinstone vitamin, but my gut is telling me she needs more than that! I guess we'll get it all figured out soon enough!

You need Dr. House! :) I'm so sorry. What a pain to deal with. Hang in there. Things can only go up :)
cutting out foods is hard. i feel so bad for you guys. does she like beans? i know she loves her fruits and veggies, i just wondered if she might like some beans too. and avocados? maybe they would help fatten her up? poor skinny little thing!

oh I hope you guys get this figured out soon. Poor Brookie- that is scary that she's getting so little again. I just feel for you Julie- let us know what the tests conclude.
Our oldest son had similar problems 34 years ago. His issue was bovine milk and corn products. He did pretty good on soy products but finally did the best on goat milk. Our neighbor had goats and we had a source for the fresh stuff. I've seen a goat farm on Redwood Road. It makes them smell like stinky feet. His problems really didn't go away until he was 4 and they finally removed his tonsils.
