After a stressful Sunday our allergist has ordered an upper GI to get things moving as we wait to see a new GI hopefully soon. I know the test itself is really non-invasive (I have had a few in the past), but I think it is going to be a huge deal for LO! I am almost 100% positive he will NOT drink the barium! He only drinks breastmilk and splash and refuses everything else we have ever offered, including water, so I am really nervous about that. I also think we are going to have a hard time getting him to stand in all the different positions for the test. Wish us luck on that!

If your LO had an upper GI, did s/he drink the barium and if not what did the technician do? Thanks!
