Baby's First Halloween....What is your baby going as?
Oct 07, 2008 03:35PM in the Maternal & Child Community
Jillian will be 21 weeks and she is going to be a monkey - for some reason I started calling her monkey a while ago and it has stuck, so my mom found a monkey costume - it is too cute :) (I think all the Fisher Price Rainforest stuff is the reason for me calling her monkey....)
Questions about sons new formula and diagnosis!

we went thru a similar situation with Jillian (she is now 4 months) - I stopped dairy in my diet while BF and that didn't work, so we went all formula (after trying a few while supplementing) and are now on Similac Sensitive RS which is lactose free and has rice cereal already in it. On top of that she is on Prevacid. What a world of difference it makes. ...
Reflux. Anything I can do??

I would suggest doing nothing until your doctor tells you what to do next. Jillian was miserable for the first few months - screaming at the top of her lungs and straightening her legs and obviously uncomfortable about something. Also, she seemed to always be swallowing or "chewing" but very rarely did she spit up. We thought it might be reflux or lactose ...
How much did your child weigh?

Jillian was 8lb 3 oz at birth, down to 7lb 4oz when we left the hospital 3 days later. At 1 month she was 9lb 7oz and at 2 months was 11lb 10oz. We stopped at the doctor on Friday and she was 14lb 5oz with clothes on - that was at 16 weeks. We go for her official 4 month visit on the 10/13 - she'll probably be close to 15 by then!

We went to the zoo today for a picnic that my work had. It was Jillian's first time at the zoo and she slept thru most of it! If I had known she would nap so well just by taking her to the zoo I would have tried that a long time ago! Tomorrow we watch football! Jillian is going to be a Buc's fan with mommy tomorrow!
