Phew! DS also started drinking water! Huge relief because he needs to be drinking it anyway. Running out of formula though was a total mom fail! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/we-ran-out-of-rx-formula#post-986055 Fri, 02 Aug 2013 20:26:23 +0000 anbanan15 986055@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: haha thanks for making me laugh! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/we-ran-out-of-rx-formula#post-986053 Fri, 02 Aug 2013 20:24:42 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 986053@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anbanan15: I know we can get it, but they definitely don't stock it. Could your baby like anything more esoteric! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/we-ran-out-of-rx-formula#post-986014 Fri, 02 Aug 2013 20:09:55 +0000 anbanan15 986014@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: aww Thanks for thinking of us! So appreciated! haha Tell me about it! When we were in the hospital the other month they didn't carry it and couldn't get it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/we-ran-out-of-rx-formula#post-985991 Fri, 02 Aug 2013 19:59:14 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 985991@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anbanan15: I was hoping it was sone thing I might have access to, but that's a pretty specific need ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/we-ran-out-of-rx-formula#post-985983 Fri, 02 Aug 2013 19:51:31 +0000 T-Mom 985983@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>:-( so sorry to hear, hope something works out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/we-ran-out-of-rx-formula#post-985974 Fri, 02 Aug 2013 19:47:17 +0000 autumnlove 985974@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aww, so sorry.

We used to dilute it to keep fluids up but he's refusing unless it's straight from the box. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/we-ran-out-of-rx-formula#post-985905 Fri, 02 Aug 2013 19:20:49 +0000 T.H.O.U. 985905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh my. That's not a fun situation. Does he have to have the flavor because that's all he likes or due to allergies in ingredients? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/we-ran-out-of-rx-formula#post-985896 Fri, 02 Aug 2013 19:14:00 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 985896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Remind me what he's on? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/we-ran-out-of-rx-formula#post-985893 Fri, 02 Aug 2013 19:10:48 +0000 anbanan15 985893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Err! </p> <p>We have enough of DS's medical food/formula to get us to Monday, then we are out! Our DME cannot reorder until next Saturday due to insurance and our pedi (nor any other local doctor) doesn't carry samples of it. Their only suggestion was to order directly from the company online which is SUPER expensive and I would hate to do so since we only need a few days worth...I have to order another months supply or pay $12/8 oz for individual boxes...obviously we will order online if we have to, but I'm not even sure we would get it in time at this point with the weekend? I also emailed his allergist who is going to check what they have in their supply of samples over the weekend, but can't make any promises since he needs a certain flavor. If she has some I will be traveling ~4 hours Monday to pick it up! </p> <p>Really no point in this post other than needing to vent my frustrations and yet another reason why I wish my child would drink something other than his "box"! Why can't he drink water like a normal child?! I'm also kicking myself in the bum for not keeping our reorder going when we had a surplus in our supply. Just didn't want the stuff to expire! </p>
