I was hoping to find a forum somewhere to help me to get a little girl with Arginase Deficiency to consume her formula. The home she was in told me to mix 50 grams of powder with 1/2 C baby rice cereal & 2 containers of stage 2 baby food (no water) & virtually force feed her. I feel like there HAS to be a less traumatic way to get the nasty stuff into her. She's 4, but developementally, more like 2.5 or so. She's been off of a bottle about 2 wks because she bit through the nipples. Today, I mixed 50 grams of formula in 9oz water & about a tsp of sugar in a bottle anyway, she drank most of it in about an hr, but I need her to do that 3X daily. I hope somebody can give me some advice, perhaps making it into a smoothie or something. I just wanna help this kid, not traumatize her with food.
