i just don't know...

i'm not sure why but today i just feel a bit down..i took Vince to WIC..had his little mask on and was proud that he wore it the whole time..they weighed Vince at about 25 pounds..this was with clothes,a diaper,and binky! I had really expected him to of gained atleast something in this past month..we have been adding duocal to his food,benecal to his bottles,an enzyme that is working..and i have managed to almost double his calorie intake this month..yet still nothing..he is still at the 50% park for his weight! so no i shouldn't be worried..but a CFer needs to be on top of things! his lowest % was 46 and that was before he was diagnosed and had pnemonia..understand now? 50% is LOW for him! i just really thought that doing all of this would have made a change! he was 24 pounds 10 ounces in the begining of september and is now only 25..not even a full pound in 6 months! this hurts! i am doing everything possible!!!! cleveland,however DID approve to try an appetite stimulant..so atleast the things he will eat he will take more of,along with maybe more bottles..i still realize the feeding tube may be a good idea,and i am positive it will take the stress off,but i feel as a mom i want to try everything beforehand..he has until he loses weight and then he will need it..i just don't know what to say..im quite saddened..WIC had to catoragize him as slow growth! and i wasnt happy that the lady working with us was coughing..like i said im glad vince wore his mask!
