Two Months



Two months had to be one of the saddest and scariest times for Mom and Dad...not to mention Grandma, Grandpa and Aunt Tara. Our once thriving happy baby became miserable. Congested nose, gunky eyes, poop that turned bright green with blood in it, tummy hurts, spitting up- and began to refuse to nurse or take a bottle. In three days we visited the Urgent care, a midnight trip to the Children's Hospital ER, and two dr. appts. Hudson lost weight in the process. He had a poop culture, a swab up his nose, not to mention the thermometer up his sore little bottom (serious diarrhea issues).
We finally discovered that he has a serious dairy allergy...to the point where his little system was just shutting down- we had to give him bottles of just pedialyte.

Once Mom stopped dairy (goodbye cheese, icecream, yogurt..) he began to improve.

So stats for 2 months: 10 pounds 6 ounces, 23 1/4 inches.
