Update on Ian

Today marks day 18 of digestive issues for Ian.  We went to the doctor last Wednesday to have our doctor run some tests and hopefully figure out what is going on.  Poor little guy is up at night, has a minimum of 5 diarrhea diapers every day, and has lots of tummy pain and gas.  We switched him to soy milk last week in hopes that it would settle his stomach a little.  He is a happy boy most days and takes good naps, but I feel like the day is focused on taking the kids to and from school, making meals, and changing Ian's diapers.  I don't mind any of those things, except that I know it is not comfortable for Ian to have so many poopy diapers.  

Today I was told by the nurse to feed him a diet high in fat, but no dairy.  We had been doing the BRAT diet, which is Bananas, Rice, Applesauce, and Toast, but it really has not helped.  We find it funny and felt we should document that a doctor has advised a diet HIGH in fat...not very often that happens!!!
