DC's numbers are a bit higher today.
Not sure why.
All P's are in place.
He's been eating well today.
Still won't try any of the new food I bought though.

More pukus @ AM +6. I guess DC isn't feeling better.
I just fed some chicken breast.
I'm going to the store to see if I can find some Pepsid and some baby food.
If someone can advise me on the dose that would be great.
DC weighs 10 3/4 pounds.
He needs to gain about 1 - 2 pounds according to the vet.

Re: 2/19 DC AMPS=139 +3=122 +8=140 question

You want to give DC 1/4 of a 10 mg tablet of plain Pepsid AC (famotidine) -- 2.5 mg. You can give Pepsid twice a day. It helps to give the med at least 30 min. before a meal. You also want to make sure you either give some water after or a treat -- something that will make sure the pill goes down vs. sticking in his throat.

Also, Gerber Stage 2 baby food is about 7 carbs. The Beechnut is 0 carbs -- no cornstarch. (Personally, I think the Gerber smells better and Gabby likes it better than the Beechnut.) If this doesn't clear soon, you may want to have your vet take a look at DC.

I picked up Heinz baby food. The chicken & broth is 0 carbs and the beef & broth is 2 carbs
I also picked up a box of Pepsid AC 10 mg.
DC was just at the vet. He said everything was good.
He would just like him to put on 1 - 2 pounds.
