Reflujo

Well, our little darling Sophia just can't seem to be apart from us for a second! Really it turns out that she probably has reflux, which means that she essentially suffers from bad heartburn and puke if we lay her down. Over the weekend Matt and I took turns sitting up with her in the snugli (backpack-like carrier) and trying to sleep on the couch. Nonna came up to visit us and helped to lessen the burden with much love for Sophia Wyona, holding her and giving us a chance to get some sleep. Monday we went back to the pediatrician and have started some medication that appears to be helping although she is currently having some trouble laying down in her crib. Matt is holding her in the snugli playing games on the computer. Sometime this week Sophia gets to have her GI track checked out to make sure everything is in working order. Please keep her in your prayers!

Congratulations on baby Sophia, she is a doll and a true blessing. So sorry to hear about the reflux...I'm currently suffering from it daily as my girls keep pushing my uterus further up my throat (or at least that's where it seems to be!). Have you tried the Dr. Brown's BPA bottles? I've heard several mothers rave about how much they helped with the reflux.

Best to you, Matt and Sophia!
