Good on you, Lina! I think that's the absolutely right thing to do.

I called the interlologist who told me to come in on the 31st and
to try the Reminidine (Zantac) for now.


Sounds like a good idea, especially if the Losec doesn't seem to be helping
and the Zantac did.

Then I tried all of your advice (everyone's. ) and offered her
some of the yam I was going to be eating in about five tiny cubes.
She shoved them in her mouth one at a time, chewed a bit and then
swallowed.
Now she's eaten about 1/4 cup of them!!!!!! I'm not about to stop
her. I'll try some other foods later tonight for dinner.


That is superb! So maybe it really was that she was just not too
enthusiastic about the puree. I know when my kids got to about this age,
they wanted food that needed chewing, maybe because the sensation of
pressure on their gums eased the discomfort of teething. Whatever the
reason, if it works, keep doing it!

I love you all! This group rocks!!!!


And we love you. Keep up the good work, Mama!
