Dr.'s Check Up

Sorry no pictures with this post! Just a short one today .

Jaris had a 6 week check up and he is in the 90th percentile for weight and head circumference, and the 97th percentile for height! He is taking after daddy. At less than a month and a half Jaris weighs what Kenzie weighed at 3 months! As for his pooping issues and puking issues the Dr. thinks they are linked and if we can get his bowel movements softer then he won't have to push so hard and then he may stop spitting up all the time. So we are trying a low iron formula. I had wanted a lactose free low iron formula however so far I have been unable to find one. So just low iron for now.

Well that is it for now - lots to do to get ready for our trip tomorrow! Packing for 4 takes a lot of prep and planning!

Hi there. When Miranda was a baby she always spit up (lots) so with switching back and forth we put her on whole milk(I know Jaris is lactose intolerant) but the dr. told us to put some corn syrup in the milk and that keeps the stools soft. Do what you want but maybe give it a try for a week and see what happens.
