So, Alex and Grant had upper GI tests today and it was conccluded that niether of them have pyloric stenosis. Alex does have a pylorus that spasms, but he should grow out of that.
So, now on to something else to figure out why they won't eat consistantly. Possibly Monday we will start something I am calling "controlled hunger." They will let Alex and Grant be babies and allow them to determine when they want to eat!
HA... who would have thought that they might just want to eat when they are hungry, and not be force fed!! **note the sarcasm!! They won't let them starve. If they won't demand to eat after so many hours they will make sure they wake them up to feed them. So, we'll see.
Thank you for the thoughts and prayers.

I always wished they'd let Brecken eat when he wanted, instead of forcing it every three hours. By the time he finally finished a bottle, it was a VERY short time before the 3 hours was up, and had to start all over. That's a lot of food in a short amount of time. Hopefully them deciding when they are hungry, like normal babies, will be exactly what they need!
