Hi everyone...
My 2 month old son has been having difficulty eating and putting on weight for the last month. At his 2 month appointment he was diagnosed with failure to thrive and the doctor off-handedly mentioned CF. When I mentioned that it does run in my husbands family (unsure of my own) she decided to run some tests. Blood work came back normal (low iron) and we are waiting for the referal for the sweat test.
I am curious about what symptoms your LO's had before diagnosis.
E currently has FTT, clay poops, gas, difficulty putting on weight, distended belly and tiredness. However, I have licked him up and down and he really doesn't taste salty...
Any input or advice is appreciated!
