Wesley is 1 month old

Well here I go again with the monthly pictures. Took some time for me to decide what to take his picture with. I wanted something different than the stuff animal that I did with Nate. So Tonka truck it is going to be. I think it is going to be fun to watch him get bigger with it.

Here is an update on where Wesley is at 1 month old.

I ended up taking Wes to the Dr 3/8 because his Acid Reflux is starting to get bad and we are spending a lot of time crying during the night (like Nate did). Makes for a very tired, non functioning Mommy. Also we found blood in his stool this weekend again. So when I got there he had a poop (blessing that he did it then) and they took it and tested it and it had blood in it. He recommended we see a GI specialist since we have already switched formulas to a non protein formula. Now we have to go on a special type that you have to order through your pharmacy. I have spent 2 hours one morning on the phone with insurance and Dr's. Good news is I found out this formula Neocate is covered by insurance! THANK YOU GOD! I almost started crying because this stuff is $35 a can! Well I thought it was $35 a can until I picked it up at the pharmacy and the sticker said $52.00. But with insurance covering it, 4 cans is $50!! That is cheaper than regular formula. So bless that it is covered by insurance! I called the GI specialist and they can not get us in until the 25th of March. The only way we can get in sooner is if this new expensive formula doesn't work. For the Acid Reflux we are now on the miracle drug Prevacid. I say miracle because that is what worked for Nate and I am hoping that will for Wesley too.

But good news he is still gaining weight! We did not do shots this time until we find out what is going on. Here are his 1 month stats:

Weight 6 lbs 10 oz - 3% (gained 8oz in 2 weeks)
Height 19.5 inches - 3%
Head 36 cm - 10-25%
