2 Months Update

I packed up Annabelle's newborn clothes with week. Now she swims in most 0-3 month old clothes. She is 9 pounds and one ounce and went up to the 25 percentile for her weight. She is in the 45% for length and 30% for head growth. She is taking in her calories! The doctors think she has reflux and some colic. Their suggestion is to keep off dairy products (which sucks because all I want is a pizza with extra cheese), increase Mylanta to 1/2 teaspoon, and also try Lactobacillus. If there is no improvement in 2 weeks then they will probably prescribe something. I will also continue with the belly massage and "5 S"

She was a champ with her shots today! She was unusually happy when she got home for about an hour and then the fussiness/tiredness occurred.
