Hectic week...

Okay after our last post, Jackson started becoming very colicky...screaming, crying, grunting, and having lots of terrible gas pains/stomach rumblings. I had to change my diet to try to eliminate a possible cause. I don't want to reminisce about any of it; it was a really bad week. Since Jonathan had to work this past weekend, I went to my parents' house. They gave be some wonderful respite. I was also very colicky as an infant, so my mom was EXCELLENT with him. She is such a natural. I swear everything comes so natural to her. I love to watch her "flow" so smoothly at anything she does (cooking, baby care, gardening, etc). This week has been a little better minus the new onset of large amounts of spitting up and him constantly hungry, so we went to the doctor today. As most cases with colic, it is just something that you have to endure. However, several things (increased coughing, strange gagging after feeding) pointed also to possible gastroesophageal reflux . We got a prescription for baby Zantac (on top of the probiotics we started last week) and an order to continue keep feeding him when he acts hungry. Hopefully, things will continue to improve especially since we have an exciting weekend! Jonathan's parents and one of their best friends (Mrs. Vicki) are coming for the day on Saturday AND the Holts from Birmingham for the weekend!! Very exciting! Sorry no photos, I think we only took one this week of Jonathan and Jackson "sunbathing" in sunlight in the kitchen (an attempt to calm Jackson); but it is not uploaded and I don't have time to right now.

PS...I wrote this on Thursday afternoon but our laptop dating back to caveman time froze up. Finally getting it published today!
