Acid Reflux

We are still struggling with the acid reflux. Poor Emma is trying so hard to keep her food down, but she's still having trouble. She fusses a lot because she is always hungry and it hurts her to have her food coming back up. We go back to the doctor (again) Thursday. So far, we've tried medicine, thickening her food with rice cereal, and formula. She hasn't lost weight, but she also hasn't gained any...and she should be getting back to her birth weight by now. I know acid reflux is common in babies, but we're still worried about her. I know Dr. Fraser will figure out what we need to do, but I'll be glad when I don't have to see her in pain anymore.

Nick goes back to work tomorrow, and I am nervous! I will have to do all the night feedings now, and no more taking turns during the day. It is going to take some getting used to, that's for sure. Although once we figure out the reflux, I think she will be much happier (making me much happier also). I know Nick is glad to be getting back to work. He is getting bored, and will appreicate the break from a crying baby. But he does respect me a lot more for staying home with her. Not that he didn't before, but it's a little different than we both imagined.

Today is our 2 year wedding anniversary. Nick rented a movie for us to watch, and we're going to order Little Caesar's tonight...not quite Ruth Chris in Hawaii, but at least Nick is off work so we can spend the day together. I managed to get out of the house long enough to buy him a gift (from Sear's), which I think he liked. It's crazy how hard it is to get out of the house now. I'll be glad when we can take Emma out in public and not worry about her getting sick.
