My big bubba turned 7 months on monday!
For a few weeks he had diarrhea (the pure water, all over kind) a few times a day and was throwing up at least one bottle a day and only drinking and keeping down 1 bottles a day. We were worried about him, I mean yes he's a big boy so he probably could've used not having his regular diet but something wasn't right. The funny thing was that he was still his happy self. Never cried and still slept from 7-8 even though he hadn't eaten all day. You would never have known something was wrong other wise. So I finally called the Dr and she said to take him off formula for a few days and only give him rice cereal and pedialite and if it didn't change anything then to try soy formula. Well, the diet didn't help and he was starving! So he's been on soy formula for about a week and so far so good. It could have been a buy or an allergy, and if it was an allergy he they usually grow out of it. So we'll just play it by ear. He's finally keeping his food down and back to four 8 oz bottles a day, solid diapers, and loving baby food like no other. His current fav-banana's on a spoon straight out of the peal.

He's so cute!! All of your kids are adorable!! I hope Finn is feeling better. Olivia did the same thing for a while. It took 2 months of diarrhea and throwing up for me to figure out she need to be put on soy. I tried EVERY formula out there, and finally the soy formula worked. Her doctor thinks she's lactose intolerant but also think she'll grow out of it. I so hope she does. Hope your cute baby is feeling better!!
P.S. Olivia LOVES her little blanket :)
