I have previously posted on here about my son - quickly, he is 23 weeks and only 10lbs 6oz. Feeding is a constant struggle - he is on Infatrini and weaning (when he has it) - basically whenever we try and feed him he bawls and then is happy and smiling as soon as we finish.
We have had loads of tests done for thyroid, liver function etc. with them all coming back normal, so he is a mystery to everyone at our local hospital. But I have just been Googling his symptoms and Noonan syndrome keeps coming up. I'm not sure whether he has the distinctive features (although his ears are quite low and sticky-outy and he has very big eyes, but then so do DD and DH) BUT he obviously has FTT and the consultant has noticed a heart murmur on two occasions (but not on others).
Basically, I was wondering if this sounds familiar to any families with Noonan? We are racking our brains to find out what's the matter with DS, as we can't go on 'just waiting and seeing' forever.
Thanks everyone x
