Reflux!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Poor Baby Ellie!

I haven't had much of a chance to blog about Ellie lately! As you other moms know, the days seem to crawl AND fly by at the same time... Suddenly it's 9:00 and you have NO idea what you did all day! It's finally getting a little easier since Ellie has been feeling better.

You see, last Monday, she got diagnosed w/ reflux and put on medication (zantac) for it! About 3-4 days on the meds and she is a new girl! She was a pretty easy baby for the first 3-4 weeks, then slowly something started to change. She was getting fussier and fussier, mostly in the evenings, but then all the time. She was vomiting more, choking occasionally and BARELY EVER sleeping! We finally put 2 and 2 together and called the Dr. to see if she thought it might be reflux. She said the symptoms were textbook and immediately called in an Rx. We go in for our 2 month appt pretty soon, so we will follow up w/ her then. But, I'm telling ya right now, she is feeling so much better and is SO MUCH HAPPIER!

YAY!!!!

Other than that, we have had some fun visits w/ friends (Cara/Liam, Julia/Howie, Maja) and of course some fun visits w/ Grandma & Grandpa. They watched her for a bit on Sat night and Craig and I went out to dinner.

This coming Sunday they are watching her while we go to the Colts vs. Cardinals game!!!!
