Default Pregestamil - yuk!

Rich wrote:

My son is 18 months old and is under the 10th percentile on the growth
chart. He sees a GI doctor and nutritionist regularly. My son has to
drink Pregestamil as per the doc's advice. This stuff smells and tastes
horrible! So he won't drink as much as we would like to see him drink.
Are there any tricks? like adding a flavor to it?


You might try adding a couple of drops of mint extract (EXTRACT
from the grocery store, not essential oil) to hide the flavor and
smell.

Serving it well-chilled might help, or even freezing it and
making a "milkshake" out of it.

And ask the doc if it's just for the added calories, in which
case you can probably boost calories in regular foods. If it's
because he has a digestive disorder, he probably needs the
Pregestamil pre-digested proteins.
