2 Months and Back to Work

What a tramatic day for the little man. Not only did I have to go back to work Tuesday but he also had his 2-month check-up and shots! Poor baby.

Going back to school was bittersweet. I hated to leave the little guy, but ready to get back into a routine. My plan was to wake at 5:30am give Mason his medicine, get dressed and eat myself....THEN get Mason fed and dressed and be out the door my 6:30am. He had other plans. We woke at 4:20 to eat and didnt go back down til 5:15 so I couldnt go back to sleep, We left at 6:40...awesome, late on the first day!

This acid reflux is about to put me to my wits end. The Prevacid and Zantac together seemed to be working for a few days. He was sleeping well at night (still is) taking a nap or two during the day, not spitting up as much and smiling and being a happy baby all day! Then......it stopped. He's still doing well at night and has still have a few times a day when he is happy, content and smiling, but will NOT take naps (or if he does it's like a 1-2hr fight) and has started projectile spit-up again. I mean like we change clothes 3 times in 10 minutes. SOOOOO I talk to the doctor AGAIN about this. This time I asked if we should go to a pediatric gastrointestional doctor. He said he wanted to try one more thing frst..so we are on Prevacid 2 times a day and no Zantac. Gotta give it 7 days to work.

At 2 months the little man weighs 11lb 7oz and is 23in long. The doctor is very pleased with this. Says he's right on target.

He likes the doggie...he'll smile and talk to him (when hes feeling good)

April I’m sorry to hear that Mason is still having issues with his reflux … I keep reading that they will grow out of this by 12-24 months (yeah … that sounds great doesn’t it?)! Hopefully your ped will get on the ball and let you take him to a specialist – but if he drags his feet don’t be afraid to take Mason without his consent – mom’s truly do know best!
