TEL UPDATE!

So for those of you far (Grammie) and even those of you not quite that far, I'm sure your anxiously waiting the latest on baby Tel :) Tel was admitted to Regina General last Tuesday because our doctor at his checkup the previous day, finally decided his lack of weight gain at 6 weeks was something of a concern! So I took Tel up on Tuesday to see the peditrican, they ran blood test, urine samples, did a abdomenal ultra sound, and a reflux test (unfortunatley not all on tuesday though!) On friday we got the results and it shows that he has a severe case of reflux, and he wasn't keeping any formula down. So Saturday morning I requested a soy based formula, and that seemed to help immediatly. He is on 2 different medications for 4 weeks, and will hopefully outgrow the reflux in that time. He is still breast feeding, but the trouble was that he never got enough milk from me (2oz at the most) and when he spit up, sometimes he would loose half of what he ate, and didn't have enough to make him fat :) So Sunday afternoon we were allowed to come home after the 5 days in hospital (I LOVE coming home!) And we're hopeful that the schedule we are on now, will continue to help our little munckin grow :)
