She lost her appetite half a year ago: a meal took more than an hour. She oftenhad abdominal pain often. A biopsy of the wall of the intestines showed that it was completely flat. The diagnosis coeliac disease was obvious.
She has a lack of resistance and has frequent otitis with high fever. She has pain in her ear and then she wants her mother with her all the time. It is worse at night and from lying down. She can also have tonsillitis and does not want to eat then.
Her labour started 2 weeks too late and so was induced. There was little amniotic fluid, it was difficult, heavy and the cervix did not dilate. Her mother was vomiting bile and was exhausted after 2 days. It ended in a vacuum extraction.
She is a sweet and easy girl, the sun at home. She is quite even in her mood. She lets people walk over her but that can give rise to panic.
She is intelligent and develops fast. She can talk quite well at 2, knows many songs by heart.
She has good contact with her parents and her younger brother.
