Ok, the title implies more than there really is. But we did decide that we wanted to try treating the reflux, and Daphne’s pediatrician was good with that plan, so she now gets baby Zantac twice a day. I’m not thrilled to be using pharmaceuticals on her, but having her be somewhere between uncomfortable and pissed off after every meal is only setting us up for nursing strikes in a couple months. And we also did a pumped feeding – Jason gave her a bottle at the kitchen table while I pumped at the kitchen table (a little surreal), but it was *totally* the right thing to do – my nipples felt so much better the next time she nursed! And we got in with the physical therapist on a canceled appointment next Tuesday.
Seems like life with a baby moves much slower – I’m either feeding her or holding her, so not much gets done when I’m on my own. But I did have two classes to teach on Wednesday, and we’ll see if the 6am class that takes place at the Y is going to continue to be on my calendar. She was quite hungry when I got home, and Jason was NOT happy that he didn’t remember what time class ended. (We won’t mention that I’ve been teaching this class for almost a year. 😉 ) And both classes I’ve taught at home have had her eating right at the end of class. I do hope that will get better, but this is one of the tradeoffs with teaching out of your house to reduce costs. 🙂
