[QUOTE="barbie, post: 268147, member: 4842"] My Eric was different from the moment I got pregnant, everything about it was different. He was preemie at 33 weeks. I started noticing things were different at about 5 months after he was born, initially he was breastfed, then I started going to school, we went from formula to formula, and the exorcist type vomitting never got better at 9 months he was inpatient due to severe dehydration and malabsorption from food. Although in the month prior to his admission I had about 5 visits to the pediatrician, two to childrens hospital and one to south miami hospital, telling me he had a virus. Guess what my mommy gut told me that wasnt the answer, he was admitted because I screamed and shouted until the doctor in the ER listened to me. What started as his "virus" ate the natural floura of his intestines, causing the malabsorption. My boy will be 5 next month, he is 38 1/2 inches tall and 34 lbs. We found out in 11/07, he was born 5/04 that he was allergic to milk protein, eggs, wheat, soy, corn, codfish, peanuts, walnuts, pork, beef and gluten although his bloodwork was negative for celiac. His behavior was all wrong he was a VERY irritable baby, at the young age of 4, in a period of 9 months he was kicked out of 8 daycares for behavior issues, and his pediatrician again refused to tell me anything, I got her notes and later learned she suspected Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and ADHD. Guess what he has both plus Sensory Integration Disorder (SID), and asthma, eczema, and reflux still. All of our stories are similar, we all KNEW something was off, but could not or didnt want to say the words out loud. My son is a high functioning autistic boy, we have issues daily.
