<< Jan, what is the behaviour of this baby like? Settled or 'colicky'? Just a

 cases I have seen, it was to cow's milk protein). It's like the gut is so
 irritated that they cannot efficiently absorb the food. Usually they have

She's a real mellow kid.  Has a bit of a fussy time in the evening -- I
specifically checked this to see if we were dealing with a milk intolerance,
but mom said she's great....

I see her again this morning -- will fill you in later today.

Jan Barger -- the sky is pink with the sun just coming upbehind the victorian
house across the street from me.  Looks like it's going to be a super day --
though it is getting cold here in Wheaton.
