Sadie saw Dr. Fortunato today. She weighs 10 lbs 8 oz. Dr. Fortunato said that her incision sights are healing nicely and she is growing well (although Adam and I both thought her weight would be a small issue). We did speak with her about Sadie's fussiness and her gas problems. Sadie was very distressed while we were there and Dr. Fortunato said she is definitely a colicky baby and gave us some things to try. I have to cut out dairy and spinach (I eat fresh spinach 1-2 times a day!) and we are also supposed to give her some mylicon drops 3-4 times a day. We go back in 2 weeks, to see if those changes have helped. I really hope they will. If things are going better I can try to add dairy and spinach back in. Adam liked Dr. Fortunato and said she was really great with Sadie. Other than her tummy troubles Sadie is doing really well. She is growing and reaching (and exceeding some) the milestones for her age. She loves to be on her tummy so she can look around. She loves to ride in the front carrier on me so she can be in the mix with everyone. She is reaching out for toys and grabbing them and putting them to her mouth. I know that none of these things is really a big deal, but to me they are all so amazing. It's so great to see how far she has come in only 3 months. Adam got a call from Helzberg Diamonds yesterday. They want to interview him for the manager position. He will interview on Thursday, so maybe he'll be able to get a better job while he's working on school.
Adam is such an amazing hubby and daddy. I have to give him snaps for turning out so great and for coming into his own, and becoming such an independent man. He has really grown up a lot since we were younger (duh, right?). I guess in some ways he hasn't had much choice. For whatever the reason, I think he's great. Loves, ya'll.
