Attn: Amanda...Failure to Thrive Remidies-B12

July 22, 2003

I did some poking around and B-12 deficiency seems to be an

important part of the puzzle.

Also not enough good fat can be a contributor as well, adding a

good omega/fish oil is something nobody can go without, particularly

pregnant or nursing moms. Our society have become so scared of

consuming fat. Fat isn't what makes you fat, it's the lack of....

(good fat that is). If you are feeling tired, wore down I would

delete the carbs you are consuming: waffles, white breads, potatoes,

pastas, pops/sugar drinks, they have a huge part in weight/health

issue as well. I've lost 40 pounds slowly over almost a year now by

eliminating the carbs and juicing vegis. Docs remedies that have

been recommended would be a great source of the stuff you need right

now. It all is a slow learning process to get balanced, it's taken

me along time of reading, trial and error, elimination to get where

I am now.

Here is a search page with lots of good information for you to read.

I have a really good midwife that I am going to see today. I just don't want to get my hopes up, thinking someone can help me and them just telling me to do something that I can't. With my 1st the only time he ever got "full" was when I crammed so many meds down him (5 or so:gripe water, pain killers, tummy glycerite, fennel tea, colic tablets, and this other colic water), that was his "meal". Now that kid can't poo on his own (again, he just relapsed), he cries in the middle of the night and he can only eat really slow. You can lead a baby to the Ninny but you can't make them stay on.
