Hi,
Just curious if anyone has had the same experience. We've had a long haul with our baby since day one. Fussy, poor sleeper, reflux, poor weight gain etc.

When we switched from EBF to formula the weight gain improved but other symptoms got worse. First it started with a full body rash that lasted about two weeks. I was told this was likely viral and nothing needed done.
Once the rash disappeared baby started having mucousy poops anywhere from 6-15 times a day. It's been 16 days now. Nutramigen resulted in a slight improvement and then things got worse again.
HV recommended 24-48 hours of dioralyte to flush her out and said it's probably viral not cmpa. I seem to have a different opinion from GP who says viral lasting this long would be highly unusual.

Has anyone else been through this? I'm suck of seeing my baby feel unwell.
