Pat,

I think you need to look at the case study to which I was responding.
This is a baby with internal hemangiomas who is trached and being fed
with a G-tube (or NGT). He is five months old and now he has developed
such severe reflux that he is not gaining.  Let's not be rediculous
about applying "rules" to
everyone. This is not a normal baby. My point was that, were he able to
eat, he may well be able to take Rice Cereal...and it is less allergenic
than the other options available. I figured I might get lambasted for
this. LOL. Hey, this might be one of those cases where being a pediatric
nurse as well as an
IBCLC might come in handy.

Susan
