Getting A Handle On Him!

I took Isaac in to the doctor on Thursday because I was concerned about his increasing spit up problem and fussiness. We decided that he is refluxing to do a forceful letdown of my breastmilk. Since then, I've been trying some different techniques when I nurse him which really seems to be helping. He was also eating WAY too much, so we have majorly cut back his feeding schedule. He weighed a whopping 9 lbs 7 ounces at his appointment.

Yesterday, he was a much happier baby since he's not overeating and getting a belly full of air while nursing. It was a much more pleasant day all around. Today is going to be a little crazy. I have to attend a baby shower brunch this morning for a friend and I'm taking Isaac with me to that. Then, later this evening, the kids have a birthday party to attend that we'll all be going to. It will be a busy day!
