Miss Spitty

A little update on Kaitlyn...
We took her to her 2 month check-up, and she weighed 10lbs. I can't believe how fast she's growing!
She's been very spitty (to put it mildly) since she was born. She spits up so much after she eats, it amazes me she gains much weight at all! She gets pretty fussy. We ruled out Pyloric Stenosis because she was gaining weight so fast; so at her last appointment, Dr Godfrey diagnosed her with GERD and put her on Zantac. It doesn't help with the spitting up, but does help her not be in so much pain with it. At this appointment, we decided to try her on Prevacid. I hope it helps. She should outgrow the reflux eventually, but I feel so sorry for her until she does.
Both of the kids had to get their immunizations as well. Kaitlyn actually did very well. She cried for a couple seconds and was over it. Talon, on the other hand, didn't take it so well. He had to get all of his 18 month shots, and one would have thought he had been shot literally! I can't say as I blame him, he had to get four shots- two in each leg. The first one he kinda made a face, like he couldn't figure out what was going on, and why I was holding him down. The last three were very traumatic! He did his little mad squeal every time he looked at the nurse after it was over. She tried to say 'bye' to him when she left, but he just turned his head and made a pouty face.



Talon loves to kiss on his little sister!
