- Eric started his new job at the end of February and has had to go on 2 business trips. The 1st one was one day, the 2nd one was 4 days. It was tough with him gone but we had fun. I was glad to see Eric when he got home, and Tyler missed him too!
- He's mimicking us a lot - he'll say "hi", "honk" and a few other things where he's copying what we say.
- We had our follow-up appt with the feeding therapist at UNC and this also included meeting with a gastroenterologist nurse practitioner. We are still really happy with the folks at UNC; they seem to be well known in the industry and know their stuff. They approach the feeding them from end to end (input/output, if you now what I mean...). So, we're now trying a probiotic to help restore the "flora" in his GI system after those 3x antibiotics, we're staying on track with the prevacid, and we added Miralax (if you're backed up it can back up the whole system). We also are trying some Periactin to treat his almost constant congestion. Two add'l side effects of this medicine are helping him sleep and increasing his appetite. So far he's doing great on this - he ate a waffle at school, he eats oatmeal, and today he ate some tortilla chip. Continuing progress!
- we love his new daycare teachers! We got a cute card for St. Patricks' Day, and can see that they interact with the kids a lot.
- One of my friends is pregnant so between her and another friend who we are hoping will be pg soon, we were able to get rid of a lot of Tyler's old stuff.
- we're on whole milk but going whole hog on regular whole milk was not kind to his digestive system. We tried Lactaid milk and that seems to be going well. We did 2 bottles (of 4; the rest were formula) first, then we went to 3 bottles. This past weekend we went to all Lactaid milk and it seems to be working out well. Generally kids outgrow the need for Lactaid milk and I hope that is the case for him!
