Calgone take me away
Isn’t that how that commercial use to go? I just had an incredibly crappy day yesterday.
First, I tweaked my back around 4 in the morning getting Will out of his crib. It still hurts.
Next, I had to call the doctor for Will. Why? He hasn’t pooped since Wednesday about 5 pm. He went from pooping every single diaper to nothing. Bill was freaking out about it. Also, his puking has picked up again. He has baby reflux, and it is hard to tell what is coming up from that and what is spit up and if he is sick. Plus, he is crabby in the afternoon.
Next, Bill worked late. Again. I can’t get anything done until he gets home. When he doesn’t get home till after 7, that means I really don’t anything done.
Next, my street is all tore up.
Next, I take Will to the doctor and this was the end of my patience. Madison was the biggest snot there. The doctor was even telling her to behave. That’s how bad she was.
I seriously just wanted to pack my Samsonite luggage and get away. Far, far away.
Today, has been a slightly better day. Bill and Madison are gone till Michigan till Monday, so it is just Will and me. I am hoping he sleeps and doesn’t give me too hard of a time.

Baby Reflux
I had to bring Will back into the doctor this afternoon for his baby reflux. His medicine does not seem to be working. I keep waking up in the middle of the night to him choking on his vomit/spit up. He also won’t sleep the second half of the night by himself, so we aren’t get much sleep at my house. Hopefully, the doctor will give us some new solutions.
Doctor Visit
I forgot to post that we had to take Will to doctor last Monday. He was still at his discharge weight (which was 6 lbs. 8 oz) and now that we wasn’t curled up, he is 20 1/2 inches long. We wanted to know if we could use Mylicon drops, and we thought he looked a bit jaundice. The doctor agreed, but it did look like he was getting over it.
Today was our follow up visit. Will is now 7 lbs. 3 oz. He gained a little weight in the last week. His length is still the same. However, we have had a couple of issues over the last week. He has major eye goop (or discharge). I now have a prescription for that. He also has baby reflux, so we have a prescription for that too. Beyond that, they are happy with how he is doing, and we have to go back in 2 weeks.
