November? Could it really be November? Yes, it really truly is. Wow, my baby girl is two months old! She is growing so big. 13 pounds already! She is smiling and cooing. Her best times are in the morning after a good long sleep. She is sleeping much better at night.

We took her to see a GI specialist yesterday for her reflux. He basically said to keep doing what we were doing and if she doesn't get better in a month to call him. The next step would be surgery and if she can out grow it we do NOT want surgery! She is on the strongest medicine, Prevacid two times a day and it seems to be helping, although she still cries the majority of the day and is having "episodes" of screaming at least once a day. Those "episodes" have decreased in length and frequency, which is why I believe the prevacid might be working. I guess it is even hard for a practiced doctor to determine what is wrong with her. He said it could also be colic on top of the AR causing her to cry. He explained to us that colic does not always mean just 3 hours a day, it could mean all day. Here are some cute pictures of Miss Carlee...

Oh Chels, Those are just the cutest pictures of Miss Carlee. She is really growing! So glad to hear she is doing better. Love to you all, Sherry
Your story gives me so much hope. Losing our Madelyn has been so hard, and no baby will ever replace her. But some days it feels like I'll never have a baby in my arms again. Then I see stories like yours and dare to hope. I don't know if we'll try again the "natural" way, but someway, somehow, we will be holding a healthy little one in our arms...
Congrats on Carlee. You deserve it so much. Once again, I'm so sorry for how much loss and pain you had to go through to get to where you are now.
