We had a 6 months follow up with Jack's GI doctor. He hasn't gained anything in 6 months (still at 32 lbs and 38.75" tall)... not good. We had taken him off the acid reflux medicine in February but we still feel that isn't needed. About 4-6 weeks ago, we took him off the appetite enhancement medicine. We're putting him back on that. We've found that since he has gone off of it, he'll still eat at every meal, but it is a struggle and he doesn't eat the same quantities (as when he was on the medicine). So we're back to that medication and we're suppose to try to supplement his food intake with some high calorie smoothies.
