After my "HELP" post I decided to take Reese to the Doctor to see if we could get to the bottom of all this spit-up and crankiness. After doing a thorough check-up and not finding anything wrong his suggestion was to start Reese on solids. He warned me that it was either going to make things worse or make things better and that if it did in fact make things worse we would go from there. So we did it. Reese has been eating solids twice a day since August 10th and it's making a HUGE difference! Our doctor explained that the solids help give the stomach sustenance and it can actually help hold down food...and it's hearty and full of fiber so she has been pooping regularly which eliminates her tummy issues! Thank you Dr. J!!!
Reese's first experience with carrots! She did unbelievably well and took to eating like a champ!
*On a side note, she only ate solids once yesterday and by the end of the day she was spitting up like crazy and so cranky...so I really believe their is something to this! I'm not ready to let my mind think that maybe the bad spit-up's are working their way back!
