Spit Up and Sleeping…
Aiden was having trouble feeding over the weekend and on Monday after a particularly hard feeding I decided that I better call the pediatrician. Well, when she called me back we talked about the symptoms that Aiden had been having (refusal to latch, detaching several times during feeding, as well as spitting up several times) and she decided that Aiden probably has reflux so she called a prescription in for Zantac (a reflux medicine). The pediatrician said that we should start to see a difference by today and that by next Monday the medication will have worked as well as it will work. So, we shall see how it goes and we will keep you posted.
As for sleeping, by blessings from above and some fluke of luck baby Aiden ate at 10:15 last night, fell asleep by 12:00 and didn’t wake up until 7:15 this morning. Both Brandon and I are grateful for this blessings from our Heavenly Father and hope that Aiden will be able to transition himself into sleeping longer so that Brandon and I don’t have to coerce him into it in the future. We attribute this blessing also to the medicine for his reflux and to the cool mist humidifier that we got to help with his stuffy nose. We think that maybe Aiden finally felt relaxed and comfortable enough to be able to just sleep. Anyway, we will see what happens. Until next time…
