A member asked:
Is there a special diet for babies born with gastroschisis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Often they have a short bowel which gives them a unique absorption ability. Review the recommended diet with the dietitian and have regular follow up to make sure the baby is growing. All the best. The diet may include vitamins.
