Reflux...

Another trip to the doctor on the weekend meant another formula and an extra medicine for reflux. The formula made things much worse but the jury is still out on the medicine. Aiden is now on Axid in the morning and Prevacid at night. Unfortunately, this is not enough. He has to sleep elevated a very steep angle.

Kelly and Aiden went back to the doctor today and we now have an appointment with a specialist at Children's Hospital in gastroenterologist in a few weeks. Kelly just reminded me that we have seen a cardiologist, urologist, and now a gastroenterologist. I think we are running out of 'ologist.

The reflux is bad. It is safe to say that he has not had a peaceful sleep on his back since he was born. It is safer to say that he has not slept but a handful of times on his back since he was born. And the most safest thing to say, Mommy has had almost no sleep while daddy sneaks it in with naps and when nana stays with us to help out.

Aiden is now 21" long, 10lb 3.5 oz and growing like a weed. He is taking a full 5 oz. bottle and we cut him off at that. H would gobble up 6 oz with no problems but the eating too much makes things much worse.
