arched his back (it stayed arched) and his head went to the right looking
up, and his left shoulder jerked about 3-4 times in a pattern. My husband
said his eyes were rolled back, but this was all over very quick and he...

kamron update by
Andrea
I called my drs and asked for an emergency appointment, but was told I would
have to wait till a triage nurse called me back!
So she calls and tells me to hang on while she asks the dr, and he has told
me to takr Kam straight to casualty (ER).
I will keep you informed.

Andrea
As Ryan said the baby has not been happy about formula since she was 5
months old, and now is 9 months old, so maybe breastfeeding stopped a while
ago?
Still this is a breastfeeding group.....

A few of you will know that I tried Kam on solids, but after having them for
4 days his eczema became much, much worse. I think it's down to the dairy
content. Also I am switching him to soya milk for the odd occasions that he
has formula. I stopped the solids after 4 lots, and Kam has now gone...

him.
My dilema was I promised myself no kids after 30 (Im 27 this time round),
and that along with the strong history all down my mothers...
