Lilypie 2nd Birthday Ticker

In the war on spit-up, nobody is safe.

When you think you're protected with shoulder armor, the man bends at the waist and gets you on your lap. Shannon and Denise would call Aiden a happy spitter because he randomly squirts large volumes of milk and it never seems to bother him. We don't even bother with the reflux meds anymore because all this spitting up does not upset him and it didn't reduce the volume of vomit on my clothes. Today we'll be focusing on laundry as most of my clothes have fallen victim to The Spitter.

In other news...we got the OK from Dr. Ally to feed Aiden 1-2 meals of solids daily. Yeah, we had already kind of experimented with solids but it wasn't a regular thing. I had him weighed earlier in the week and his weight fell off the curve. Dr. Ally thinks the addition of solids should help him get back on the curve. So far he's had rice cereal, oatmeal and sweet potatoes. He LOVES oatmeal and sweet potatoes. I think we'll start peas next.
