It's been a while since I've written. again. Life has been up and down. Jack is still vomiting and sometimes spitting up. I'm not sure what's going on with him. The projectile vomits are what concern us. We can handle the reflux. I don't think the Pepcid helps, but the GI doctor said that it would help Jack's esophagus. We continue to administer it.
Jack had a good day at school Tuesday. Thursday wasn't much fun. The teachers said that he was very sensitive most of the time. He didn't want to transition and was very scared of cotton balls. Poor guy.
Friday was horrible for me. The stress finally got to me. Thank you wonderful hubby for the extra help. Thank you wonderful family for the emotional support. Thank you xanax. Sometimes I feel so alone in my world of stay-at-home mommy and CFC mommy.
Jason recorded a Flip video for us to share from an AMAZING happening Saturday evening. However, after two negative reactions, we will not be sharing. Let me elaborate. Evelyn and I were snacking on Cheese Puffs.
Jack decided that he wanted one by pointing to the bag and saying, 'uh'. Of course, I gave him one puff. He got the cheesy powder all over his fingers and stuck his fingers in his mouth. This led to Jack asking for a second puff. Now, both hands full, Jack licked the puffs. This led to placing the puffs in his mouth and crunching. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This went on for more than 20 minutes. We were so proud! So excited. Here's the bummer. Jack's face, around his mouth broke out in a blotchy rash. The rash stayed for 10 minutes. He also had MASSIVE gas and was VERY fussy later that night.
We offered Jack some Fritos tonight. He took right to them. He started with rubbing the salt off the chip sticking his fingers in his mouth. Next came the licking of the chip and then placing the chip in his mouth and even a crunch! We gave Jack a couple more cheese puffs. He stuck those in his mouth again.
Jack's face broke out in a blotchy rash, again.
The cheese puffs had whey. The fritos did not. The formula, the one that GI wanted to switch Jack to, was 100% whey.
Am I crazy? Here comes some research and contact with the nutritionist.
