Over the past week, Eden has been rejecting her food. Since birth, she has always been a good, healthy eater, so this was definitely abnormal behavior for her. We took her to the pediatrician to see if she had an infection that was causing her pain. The doctor didn’t find anything and concluded that Eden might have acid reflux. Given all of her symptoms, this diagnosis made sense. The doctor prescribed baby Zantac which we give to Eden twice a day. Here are some pictures of Eden taking her medicine this morning. Although she looks like she’s smiling in these pictures, I don’t really think that she likes the taste of the medicine. Being the good baby that she is, I think that she tolerates it.
One good thing about going to the doctor is that we now know her weight and length:
Weight = 13.8 lbs (up from birth weight of 8 lbs 10 oz)
Length = 24.25 in (up from birth length of 20.5 in)
What a healthy baby!!
