The last couple of days have been miserable. It turns out my poor little Wolverine has reflux - which explains the spitting up all the time and the crying when he's gassy. We tried chamomile tea. We tried sitting up with him for 30 minutes after every feeding but it just wasnt enough so - now we have a perscription. I'm just hoping it helps him. Everytime he cries (not the hungry or change me cries though) my heart breaks a little. I haven't been getting much sleep though - especially the last few nights - he just doesn't want me to put him down. I'm really hoping his medicine works so that, what little sleep I *do* get can be much better (and maybe even in my own bed instead of on the couch!)
On the upside, I know that, even with the spitting up, he's getting enough to eat (always my first concern) - he's up weight wise. He was born at 10 lbs 6 oz. lost a little in the hospital then gained it back and was 10 lbs 10 oz at his 2 week check up and now, at his One Month check up, he wieghs 11 lbs 4 oz. He's my bruiser ;)

And I hope you get some good sleep! That's always important! ;)
