  • @ProphetOdeth

    I had this when I were some months old back in the 1988. I am from Finland (northern Europe). My blood type is O and my mother was 22 years old when I were born. So it seems those conditions really matter. :p

  • thank you it really helps me understsand this problem keep up the good work

  • It's theoretically caused by the drastic change of environment and diet

    caused by modern day mass migrations. It is especially prevalent in northern European

    first born males with a bloodtype B or O of mothers between ages 18-22

    whose last 3 months of pregnancy were stressful and who gave birth in the last quarter of the year.

  • thanks, that was very informative... were learning about this in class!!!

  • my baby sister died of this at 11 days old.

    this was longgg before modern medicine could have done something.

    Her name was Nedda Jean.

  • I had it as a baby but I'm not male or a firstborn...?

  • My son developed this at 13 days old. He had surgery at 20 days old. It was hard to diagnose, the ultrasound came back normal but he soon dehydrated so Dr. did barium swallow which revealed it was pyloric stenosis. He projectile vomited severely & it broke my heart. He is now 7 weeks & doing fine!
