2 Months ALREADY?

 

I packed them up. Kaylee’s newborn clothes that is. When people tell you to enjoy every minute, that they grow so fast, they are right. I never really understood this until I became a mom and here I am already with a two month old! (Well tomorrow anyway!)  I have enjoyed her so much, the coos, the smiles, and this morning a laugh! Even with her belly troubles, she has been a joy, and I am convinced she is the best baby ever! ( I know, I know, don’t we all think our baby is the best. :)

Here is some of what she has been up to:CIMG3321CIMG3322

One of the cutest things about Kaylee is how she sleeps (so peaceful and cute) and wakes up. Always with a big ole stretch!

Here is the update from the GI doctor:

Dr. Devoid confirmed the protein allergy and had me stop eating nuts in any form and eggs in addition to the dairy and soy I was already off. We continued to give Kaylee Nutramigen formula until we were out of it to let my body get rid of as many of those proteins as possible. We started back on breast milk this past Friday and Kaylee seems do be doing well on it. She still has a fussy time in the afternoon, but she hasn’t had any bloody stools so that is good!

She is also starting to sleep better at night! I know I wrote a sleeping through the night post a while back ago, but she didn’t so that again until just the other night. We’ll see if it keeps up!

I am feeling hopeful now! I was so worried that even with going off all those things I wouldn’t be able to breast feed her. I am glad that I have found some foods to eat and now that I have rid my cabinets of all the “bad” stuff, it isn’t too hard to want for what I can’t have. Holidays will be hard though. That’s the newest thing I am worried about. Thank you for all your prayers for Kaylee!

 

Here is the latest EVERYTHING free thing I have tried, the Enjoy life boom CHOCO boom bar! YUMMM!!! I hope Santa brings me some of these for Christmas! (THEY HONESTLY TASTE GREAT!!!!!!!)

  1. What a beautiful difficult journey nursing is and to have allergy issues along with normal troubles can be extra stressful. I hope God continues to bless your sweet family and that beautiful bundle of joy.

  2. Great news that the diet will allow you to BF! Yay on sleeping through the night too! :-) I will have to get one of those chocolate bars for Christmas for my son who is allergic to milk. I didn't know there was anything like that out on the market.
