ChrissyandBrian Dalton not sure the total calories off the top of my head, I'll check when I get home but yes that is 1 days worth of food but we give 4 boluses, plus 24 oz of water (4 oz with each bolus & 4 oz between morning feedings and afternoon feedings)

For general information on blended diet, head to our sister site, foodfortubies.com. For blending what you eat, I would add milk or some other liquid. If you decide to build a recipe, check out http://www.foodfortubies.org/blended-diet-basics/recipe-building-101/.

My son would be dead if we didn't start the blended diet! I know that sounds extreme but it's true! He retched so badly 20+ times per day that he ended up w a paraesophageal Hirnea! No one could figure out why &?wanted to put a jtube in...he was 2 1/2 when we started the diet & his 2 yrs of nonstop retching ...stopped from day 1 of the diet! It was a miracle! I took him to Cincinnati & the dietician there suggested it..I thought there's no way this would work...we tried every formula available every med every test! & real food is what saved him! In Cincinnati it's a regular diet for GT kids, there formula lab even makes it for you when inpatient! Kathy Santoro from Cincinnati saved his life! A dietician! Not the surgeon that wanted to cut him open & "explore"...we left buffalo & hauled ass to a place that was willing to try something new....buffalo kicked us out of the feeding clinic saying they would never support the blended diet & my son would get infections bla bla bla! Well guess what! In 8 yrs he's never had one!

Blenderized T. replied:
That is great that your pediatrician is advocating real food! I push a pretty thick blend for my son, gravity feeds most likely will not work. The key to getting the food through the tube is smoothness - make sure there aren't any chunks. For info on getting started feeding a BD you can check out our website and this article http://www.foodfortubies.org/blended-diet-basics/getting-started/ I will post to the group for you :)
