May 13, 2008 Running Errands

I didn't get to watch much of the movie...I fell asleep probably 30 minutes into it. Kaylee said she watched the whole thing, and she really liked it. She came up with the idea to watch it again tonight...lol...I'm not so sure about that one.

It took us 3 hours to get showers, Kenned bathed, and dressed--ready to leave the house to get things accomplished. I have my little check list and I want to get some stuff marked off of it. Right before we leave, Kennedy decided to poop all the way up her back! Yep, she is no longer constipated...and it is more like a diarrhea mess. I don't know if this is normal, or if Similac just isn't for her. I don't want to be one of those moms that constantly change her formula's until the perfect one is found, but I think I might be!

Anyway, we get a new outfit on the baby and we are headed out of the house. We hit Wal-Mart, The Bon-Ton, Target, and walked around the Martinsburg Mall for a little while. I called my doctor to schedule a 6 week check up for me this week, and they are able to squeeze me in on Thursday. We then ran across Hagerstown looking for the medical lab that I was sent to. They ended up moving to a new building, and I was afraid we wouldn't get there in time before they closed. Well we made it, and Kennedy was a champ when she took her blood. Kennedy didn't even cry (I think that was because I was feeding her at the same time..lol). Dad's house is right around the corner, so we went there to visit. He fed us something to eat, and sent us home with some home-made vegetable soup.

By the time we got home, unpacked, and sorted through the bags from shopping it was 10 p.m. and way past Kaylee's bedtime. So the office was not touched...nothing in the house was touched actually. I have my work cut out for me tomorrow while Kaylee is in school. I have to get at least one of these rooms done before Larry gets home so he doesn't have a panic attack! lol. I am exaggerating of course...he told me to sleep when the baby slept and to just relax while he was gone. I just want to be more proactive about gutting the house. There is no time for relaxing until that is done.

Hey! About the formula, Enfamil's Nutramigen really worked for her. It is expensive, but if you qualify, WIC will cover it with a doctors prescription. It will help keep her regular as Kate had a really hard time with this after the SCT resection. It smells horrible, makes their poop smell extra bad, but it's worth it.
Good luck & much love!

How long has she been on the Similac? I had to change Joey's at least 3 times before I found the right one. Don't worry about changing it, some will cause gas, some constipation, some diarrhea and some projectile vomiting. If she has had long enough to adjust to the formula and is still having problems you might want to change but if the problems come and go or she hasnt' been on it more than a 2 weeks keep her on it and see how she does. My cousin had so many problems they finally had to put her on good ole cow's milk, now she has a little one and he is doing the same thing. Last count he was on formula number 3 and I think he is 3 months old or close to it.

Don't know if Larry is aware but they moved JR to Winchester to start physical therapy.
