Michelle, sounds a bit like what my DD has. We've had 5 weeks of it now, it has been getting better, my GP has referred us to a specialist, but also suggested cutting back on pure fruit juice. Does Charlie drink much fruit juice? I only give LO fruit juice, plain water or milk and cutting back the juice a bit has made a bit of a difference. She was also totally fine in herself, no temp etc.The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.Bertrand Russell0
