Solid

We've had a great stretch of solid stools. Who would've thought I'd cheer for my son's pooh's? Four *solid* days, little blood, and clearly feeling good, this may be a fluke but we'll take it! Today was quite a bit more mushy, so the streak may be coming to an end however...

Our boy still had tons of energy and has been eating like crazy. It's difficult to keep up with him and we find ourselves looking for more and more ideas for creative snacks that fit within where he is on the SCD.

After 4 weeks of Entocort, we hadn't seen much improvement... though our doc said it could take about 6 weeks before seeing its full effect. We introduced the EleCare after 4 weeks of Entocort to see if we noticed any incremental changes one way or another. The EleCare is a great non-SCD snack that doesn't seem to bug his gut, and may be helping. In any case, our son likes it and I feel good that he's getting more nutrients without any adverse effects.
