Came & went. We got there and discussed a bunch of things. He is 4oz above his birth weight and 9 oz above the weight he was when he went home. He is 6lbs 13oz today. Unfortunately he's down 1oz from Saturday. Did you get all that?
We're having some issues with nursing and I don't know how to help him. I am working on it and trying all the tricks that I learned from nursing Meredith, but...... I can't tell if they're working or not. It's very hit or miss. We have a lactation consultant coming Monday evening who will hopefully be able to help us.
His pediatrician thinks Sean might have some reflux issues, which isn't such a far stretch since Meredith had it. He gave us a script for some zantac to try. Reflux would explain a lot of issues we're having.
We're also going back to the pedi on Monday to discuss the zantac, get another weight check and who knows what else. We're also going to the cardiologist next Thursday instead of August 12. The pedi seems to think that waiting the full month isn't good.
It's a good thing that he's so proactive, but I really need a break from the dr. Is it terrible of me to just want him to have the damn surgery already so we can just get it over with?
More to report on Monday.
