Twilight Zone Week!

Oh my goodness gracious me! What a nutso week it has been!!! Where to begin where to begin....

Tuesday we saw the speech pathologist, of course lover was acting up during her feeding but I like it when she does that in front of the professionals... makes me not look like I'm making it up =p She is so funny. Her feedings are totally variable as always. Her consistency is her inconsistency... makes it so easy to do a calorie count! AAAHHH. Oh well she'll figure this eating thing out one day =)

Wednesday was a very ridiculous day. Started off going to see the orthotist to have a helmet (or as I like to call it her bubble) check. She made a few minor adjustments and babes seems to be completely unphased by the whole thing. I of course have it decorated with her name in pink glittery stickers and Halloween pumpkins... SO CUTE! After we drove all the way home from Madison Hgts from that I noticed there was a sharp edge that didn't get buffered down after she made adjustments so back in the car we went. And can I just say that #1 I hate construction and #2 what in the world is up with I-75?! What a nightmare! People drive like they are possessed. Babes was also having trouble keeping her feedings down but she is still getting over her cold. Just a crazy day that ended in a crazy shift at work!

Thursday we went to the pediatrician for a weight check... 8 lbs 14 ozs yay!!! Thats a 6 oz weight gain in 2 weeks... not quite where she needs to be but a definate improvement! We also went up on her zantac for her reflux. It already seems to be helping!

Friday we went to the dietician to try and figure all her calories out but again she is so varying in her feedings. She is a tricky one thats for sure. For now we are going to stay on the original formula supplement at the original ratio of neosure to breastmilk because that is all she continues to tolerate.

The cardiologist office called me and wanted to move up her next appt to next tuesday... not sure why but to be honest the sooner we fix her little ticker the better. I think she will feel much better when she doesn't have to work so hard to do things like breathe and eat. I will surely keep you all posted on that. I am fairly certain she will have to have it fixed with the surgery through her ribs... thats what I am preparing myself for anyways. She tends to take the longer road... the girl cannot be rushed!

The worlds biggest news ever is that she rolled over!!! Of course she did it in the dark of night... stinker face. I put her to bed on her back and when I woke up she was on her belly. She hasn't done it since of course and I keep trying to get her to and she just smiles a big smile at me. "No way mommy I don't to tricks on command" HAHA

So far next week we only have to go to the pediatrician to get her 6 months vaccines. Poor little booger =( I do think her shots have more affect on her than they do me =p haha
