11 Days Old


Cooper and Daddy sleeping


Cooper is 11 days old. We started him on Zantac today because he has acid reflux. The doctor said it is mild to moderate. We tried the formula change and it was not helping, it only gave him diarrhea. Poor little thing has had a rough week. He slept really good last night in his bouncer. He went 4 hours the first feeding and 2 1/2 after that. I don't think he likes the bassinet because he has to lay flat on his back. When he is at an angle it helps to keep the acid down.

Kimberly-Cooper is beautiful!He will get better my son Koby had problems and it seemed that he did not feel good for a long time. But, once we got him on the correct formula he felt much better! Hope he feels better soon.

I'm glad he's doing better. It's always so hard when they don't feel good.

The Mascorro's baby slept in her bouncer and I'm not sure if she still does since she's almost 6 months. She had acid reflux and it really helped her. She also used the enfamil with rice already in it. She said that REALLY helped! I also have an angled pad... it's angled so their head is higher than their feet. I'm sure you could get one at Babies R Us. You might try that.

I guess you have to do whatever helps him to sleep. A girl from church was talking the other day and said her son wouldn't sleep in his bassinet and only slept good in his car seat, so that's where the pediatrician told her to let him sleep! He's so cute!

He looks like he is already growing. Hopefully he will get all straightened out and feel better soon. Hang in there! Can't wait to get back up there to see him. He is so cute!
