Finally, Answers. Well, not really, but almost.

After much to-ing and fro-ing, we finally heard back from the paediatrician. To cut a long (and irritating) story short, he believes Freddy may be cow's milk protein intolerant, and recommended we try soy milk. No tests or results though, since he a) hadn't ordered any before and b) told us they were unreliable.

So we tried it. And he took the whole lot down, hardly any wind, NO vomit, and fell straight asleep afterwards.

So we're on exclusively soy milk now, and he's been a lot better. A bit of sickness, and we still think he has reflux, but he's taking the food a lot better and sleeping almost as much as he should be at this age.

Jen's a bit gutted to have to give up breastfeeding, but we tried cutting dairy from her diet and it was extremely difficult, and didn't have an awful lot of an effect.

And in just a couple of months we'll be weaning him anyway! If they'd taken any longer, it would've been a lot of wasted effort.

What else, what else.... not a lot to be honest. We finally got Rock Band! Woo! I am becoming a drum-supremo (on anything but the Ramones, anyway).
