Momma and Daddy took me to the doctor yesterday, and I saw the same funny man as before. He is silly and although he looks into my ears and touches my tummy with a cold thing, he let Daddy hold me the whole time.
The doctor says I have something called reflux, and that is why I spit up so much. He gave momma and daddy a medicine to give me called an antacid...It has a funny name. Momma says it is called Axid. I make a funny face when I take it, but it tastes like bubble gum, whatever that is!
I have gained more weight, and now I weigh 9 lbs and 7 ozs. So the doctor says it is good I am gaining weight, but because I am not sleeping well, and spitting up so much, and wheezing, that's why I have reflux. He told momma and daddy that he hopes the medicine will help. If not, then they are to bring me back in 2 weeks. We all hope it works!
I have started sleeping in my crib more. I miss being close to momma and daddy, and they miss me too, but I grunt alot when I am awake and when I sleep, and that was keeping momma awake, and the doctor said it was making momma's blood pressure go up. So, I have to sleep in my own room now. I try to sleep, but sometimes it is hard to stay asleep, and I wake up and cry. But momma comes in and picks me up and holds me until I am calm, and then puts me back down.
Daddy gave me a cold, so it is even harder to sleep because I have all kinds of boogies in my nose, but I keep trying.
I went to Wal-Mart yesterday with momma to look for long underwear for daddy, and I hated it. I cried the whole time, and momma left real quick. She said it was because they didn't have them. I hope we don't go back again.
Oh, and tomorrow, I get to go to the city with momma and daddy for a party for momma's work. I will meet lots of new people. Momma says she hopes I sleep. But there will be so much to see. She says she promises to take pictures.
She says I have to go to bed now, so bye!
Love
Charlie
