Colic AND Thrush... OH MY!

We had reagans 2 month appt yesterday and here are her stats:

Weight: 9lbs 5.5oz = 40th percentile
Height: 22 inches = 47th percentile
Head: ? =50th percentile

So she has COLIC AND THRUSH... ugh...

Colic..
she has been really fussy and gets really gassy and screams after every feeding so we had to switch her formula to NUTRAMIGEN for colic babies due to cows milk allergy. So i got a perscription for that for wic and when i went to wic they had me call some place that delivers the special formula to your house!!! so from now on we will be getting her formula through the mail. Both dave and i were colic babies, he was on soy and i was on goats milk for it.

Thrush..
Reagan has thrush... it is a bacteria in your mouth. she is taking NYSTATIN 1 ml on each cheek 4 x a day. They also perscribed her Tylenol for the pain. Again both dave and i had thrush.. i guess dj got lucky or we never caught it.

So at the weight Reagan is at right now, DJ was the same at 2 weeks. So they are very different babies LOL. Reagan will be tall and skinny like dave and DJ will be tall like dave but have some muscle/weight on him.. lol

So that was my big day yesterday!

Poor little girl... I hope she gets better soon!!! Mimi also drinks soy milk (still does at 16 months old), and Mia can handle low lactose milks only... Also, Mimi's skin is very sensitive, and she gets all kind of stuff and rashes all over her body (one reason or the other, but mostly because of the heat).

I hope she feels better soon! Aslynn had thrush around 3 weeks old as well and both her and Brayden are lactose intolorent (I am) and Brayden is on soy milk and Aslynn on soy formula.

How cool about it being delivered to your house though. Thats really cool!
