Solid Food Advice

Hi, I am a mom to twin 6 month olds and we have just begun solid foods after being exclusively breastfed. My son is a champ and loves anything I give him, however I am having problems with my daughter. She cries and screams anytime I try to feed her solid foods, basically just refusing to eat; then when I pick her up she roots and roots to be nursed because she is hungry.

Nutramigen Ready to Feed or Powdered....

IS NUTRAMIGEN LIQUID DIFFERENT FROM NUTRAMIGEN POWDER? My 1 month old son has acid reflux so spitt up and gas are a Huge deal in my house. Her pedi just switched him to Nutramigen/ rice cereal to help with spitt up and colic. Before he was on similac advance/rice cereal but the liquid kind.

Is the liquid one any different than the powdered one?

6 Month Old with Diarrhea for Two Weeks! Teething?

My six month old son has had explosive diarrhea for two weeks now and I am worried. This is unusual for him, as before he only went every other day. He is going multiple times a day now and it is very watery/mucousy. He is not vomiting or running a fever and seems to feel fine. I have taken him to see his pediatrician twice now. She took a stool sample to rule out bacteria and put him on antibiotics. It is not getting any better though. I was exclusively breastfeeding and supplementing with formula (about 4 oz daily while away at...
