i never tried but here is a protein bar recipe with all natural ingredients whttp://weelicious.com/2014/08/06/protein-bars/
Felicia V. replied:
i made these with whole milk ricotta cheese instead of cottage cheese http://weelicious.com/2010/10/05/cottage-cheese-pancakes/
I had one who needed to gain...and that was a real shock w/ the genetic makeup of my family and my husbands. The Dr. Told us must get calories in him. Best way healthy...but calories must get in. Really try healthful...as later mine had issue. But to give some bang for the buck...we got chocolate milk boxes...extra sugar but protein...no Pam...eggs w/ oil...red milk...u can get pasta that healthier...ronzoni has white w/ extra fiber...all my kids eat. I make a banana muffin w/ white whole wheat flour and oats. Try diff't nuts and see what he likes...cheese stix...yogurt...maybe some melon for dessert...even if don't usually offer...just at least a few more calories..and healthy.
Melissa M. replied:
Susie Baumohl he does like peanut butter. At least he used to. He hasn't eaten it in a while because he got sick of it. actually today i asked him if I can buy the bread (whole wheat) I used to buy for him, and maybe he can have peanut butter and jelly sandwiches again.... He actually said yes, he will try it again! So that could be a good snack.....?
Susie Baumohl he loooooooves pasta. He also likes Apple kugels broccoli salad.....just not sure what to add to that stuff to make it "healthful calories". His Dr keeps stressing that....
Melissa M. replied:
Susie Baumohl those are great ideas thanks! Are there any recipes for meat or chicken in puff pastry dough or I just have to make something up? I'll have to look into meat lasagna. I think he may like that actually ...

Candlewood Vally pediatrics:)
Jillian D. replied:
CVP for us too. We have really loved Dr. Fanella, Dr. Hack and Dr. Tiso. Dr. Beck is good too. It is a big practice with lots of doctors, so you should always be able to get an appointment same day. They have long hours and do sick visits on Saturdays until noon. When it comes to specialists, I would do more homework though. I haven't liked doctors they have referred me to.
Kelly B. replied:
Dr. Roman Alder! We LOVE him!

Candlewood Valley Pediatrics. My son sees Dr. Beck and Dr. Tiso.

Any Suggestions on a Pediatrician near Fayetteville? ? One that actually pays attention to what you say and takes care of issues....
Megan N. replied:
We like Dr. Spears at Fayetteville medical
Betsy T. replied:
Winchester Pediatrics...Dr. Szwarchowska ( everyone calls her Dr. S ) she sent Kalli to a specialist and her asthma is now under control. No more begging and worrying.We absolutely love her !
Nic A. replied:
Dr Thorpe is good. She was my kids dr b4 we moved I met dr K and switched them to her ..
CadaBugg A. replied:
I absolutely love Dr. Thorpe!!! I recommend her to anyone
Brittney S. replied:
Don't know of any in Fayetteville however Dr . Jeffrey Brassart at Cornerstone Pediatrics in Madison is wonderful!!! We LOVE Dr.B:)
Heather S. replied:
I really like Dr.Thorpe. She's very thorough with me. I've told 2 other doctors Hunter had asthma and she's the only one that took the time to listen to me and check him.
Rene' M. replied:
Dr Hugh's is great. My first suggestion probably wouldn't go over very well.
Jessica S. replied:
Dr. Thelen here in Fayetteville is wonderful. She always listens to me. I hate constantly giving my kids antibiotics and she doesn't push them. I felt a previous dr we used pushed labs that were not necessary and Dr. Thelen doesn't push them. I think it's ridiculous to check a child's cholesterol at age 5 when they show no signs of high cholesterol, so I swapped over to Dr. Thelen.
Cassie Y. replied:
I really like Dr. Thorpe also. She's very thorough, not to mention a really nice person. And if you ever have any questions, her nurse is very good about calling you right back.
Julie T. replied:
I love Dr. Thelen! She listens to your questions and concerns and will explain something 1000 times if she has to. She's great with adults and kids. I just swapped Niki to her. When Niki had Mono Dr. Thelen called me about her test results. I loved that she did that herself instead of having her nurse do it.
Nic A. replied:
I love Dr Kaczmaska in shelbyville
Regina J. replied:
We have been VERY pleased with Dr Spears. He has taken care 2 of my grand babies since birth now they are 6 and 8. The kids also love him.

Can anyone recommend a great Darwin Pediatrician for a new expecting Mum?
Sarah M. replied:
Fiona Kay at the Superclinic in Palmerston is lovely and is a relatively new mum herself.
Bec P. replied:
There are some GP's that have worked in Paeds and have extensive paed knowledge such as Dr Dayaratne but there isnt any private consultant paediatricians.
Carly H. replied:
I am pretty sure Fiona Kay is a private peadiatrician with Top End Paediatrics. You will need a referral from your gp and the waitlist can be long but depends on what issues bubs has. She is fantastic!
Laura C. replied:
Dave N Kristen Holding
Marie C. replied:
I agree Dr Dayaratne at the Palmerston Medical Centre. He has alot of qualifications. He was great with my daughter when she was constantly sick, great with a family friends son who has autism and had to have gromets in the ear.
Carli C. replied:
There IS private paeds now. Louisa Woodward & rob (somebody)

Eric P. replied:
Dr. Ettephagh at Aquidneck Medical on Memorial Boulevard was Emma and Amelia's pediatrician when we lived in Newport. Very no-nonsense, very smart, and always took as much time as needed to answer questions. Highly recommended. And Dr. Parmeswarian at the same office is great for family/adults.
