So yesterday was my first day back to school. I love my class, but it's so hard to be away from my sweet baby. I was doing pretty well until my mom called and told me that JD was having an allergic reaction to something. He was throwing up and covered with a whelts. I immediately called the DR and my dad took him in. She ended up concluding that he had "contact dermatitis" which basically means that he had a rash because of something he touched. It pretty much went away by the time he went to bed Tues. night. I had to cuddle and nurse him pretty much the whole evening, but that's ok because I missed him and I was so worried about him.
Today he did great all day. My mom only fed him breastmilk that I had pumped because she wasn't sure if maybe he was throwing up from the formula we had been supplementing? After school I went to Kira's to feed him, and then I went to church. John picked him up and fed him about 8 with a bottle of formula. Well, I got home at 9:30 and read JD a book. While I was reading he started throwing up......and throwing up....and throwing up...SIX times total. I am so worried about him. I think it must be the formula because he had just had that??? I am going to call the pediatrician in the morning, but please pray.
Going back to work has been rough on me, and this is making it even harder. I need some peace of mind. We are going to try to supplement with a different formula tomorrow and see if it will work. I sure hope so because at this point I'm not pumping enough breastmilk to feed him on that alone. I'll keep you posted. In the meantime, any prayers would be greatly appreciated!!!!
