Her first cold!

Well, Caitlin has her first cold. It started with occasional coughing but over a couple of days it got worse so in we went to the pediatricians. The pediatrician said it was just from congestion/draining and that she didn't need any meds. Well, two days later I have strep throat and her cough is worse!!! I am now on antibiotics and she has cough medicine which seems to be helping, her coughing doesn't sound as bad now. It does make her sleepy though but atleast that will give her body a chance to work on getting rid of the cold. She has been in pretty good spirits throughout with the occasional fussiness. Hopefully we are both on the down hill of being sick and will be better soon!!!

Oh, and in two weeks Caitlin has her 4 month appointment and the pediatrician will tell us what foods to start!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am soo excited but I feel she is still soo little! I know she is ready, she is a good eater and I am sure she will enjoy new tastes!!!

Sorry I haven't blogged again!

I have been soo busy I haven't had a chance to blog!!! Well, a week ago we had an ice storm--horrible!!! Our fence is still busted up and the dogs can't go outside alone so that has been interesting.

Caitlin is in love with her bumbo seat! She absolutely loves it! I don't think she understands how she can sit up and see mommy at the same time, she just sits and watches the dogs running around!

I have two interviews tomorrow, hoping I do well!!!

Other than that it has just been work, work, work!

Another Formula Change!

The pediatrician has suggested another formula change(to alimentum) since Caitlin now refuses her acid reflux medicine. I would think we would be told to use a formula that is specifically for reflux??? I don't know. All I know is this will be formula #4.

I am back at work now and am exausted but happy when I get any time to spend with Caitlin.

Well, I am just starting this so we will see how it goes!!! I am hoping to be able to keep everyone updated atleast once a week with how Caitlin is doing!

Right now she is doing great. She is on a medication for acid reflux--a very messy issue but we are working on it! She is sleeping through the night on a regular basis, which helps with our sanity a lot!!! She smiles a lot and likes to jabber. She has already doubled her birth weight--in less than three months!!!!!!!! Needless to say, she likes to eat! She is on nutramigen. It is one of the most expensive formulas out there but she is sleeping better so I guess it is worth it!
