I am sure most moms know how hard it is to get your baby to sleep through the night. The first 2 weeks after Jaxon was born I was lucky if he would sleep 2 hours straight at night and if I could even get him to bed before 2 am. Then by 3 weeks he worked his way up to sleeping two 4 hour strethches through the night. And I was thrilled about that. Now I can say at 1 month he is sleeping anywhere from 6 to 8 hours straight. I don't know how he did it but i do know that he has been sleeping great for about a week now! I have to be the luckiest mom!:)
And on to the unlucky part. For the past week and a half Jaxon has had a hard time keeping his food down. Each time he eats he would spit up just about everything. So this meant that I had to feed him pretty much every hour just to get him somewhat satisfied. :( I have been feeling like a cow because he has to eat so much. Finally Josh and I took him to the doctors because we knew something was not right. First the doctor told us that he might have the flu. Which I thought was weird because I didn't think the flu could last for over a week. He told us to only give him 1/2 oz of pedialyte every 15 minutes for 12 hours. This was torture! Everytime we gave it to him it would all come back up. He was starving by the time the 12 hours were over and I felt so bad. So again today I took him to the doctors and he lost 4 oz and the doctor thought it would be a good idea to treat him for acid reflux. I thought this all along but at first the doctor didn't agree with me. Maybe sometimes they should just listen to the mom! The medicine should hopefully help him so he's not in pain and so he can keep some of his food down. Poor little guy!
