Day 2 - one step into getting started with Univera

OK - Day 2, catching up...
morning dose of Aloe Gold [gel] 12 mL/half a packet, given just at the end of his overnight feed [Evan is fed through his stomach PEG by a slow drip/"kangaroo" pump that delivers formula at a slow pace overnight].

Reactions so far: well, he cleared his bowel alright...but I've been warned that Evan will have some strange movements when he starts to take these products.

During the day, while at school, I'm told that he was a bit unsettled and used his communication book [AAC, PODD book] to say that his stomach hurt/was uncomfortable. Not sure if this is to do with Univera products working, but I'll state it as I know it each day.

Night dose given with evening meal: 12 mL Aloe Gold [gel].

Sleeping well now; he usually does - better than his brother [8 yrs-old] and sister [3], who all sleep in the same room. Evan falls into restful, peaceful sleep even while the other two cause havoc. But for tonight, they are all angels in dreamworld.

Sweet dreams.
