Give me an "A"! Give me an "S"! Give me an "H"! Give me an "L"! Give me a "Y"! Give me an "N"! What does that spell? ASHLYN!!! Hooray for me! After 6 months of life, I've finally passed the 12lbs mark for a 2nd time! This time I'm hoping to stay healthy so I can fatten up, kind of like I was before Christmas, and before getting sick. All my cousins and Aunts & Uncles were rooting for me and I finally did it! I'm still well below the normal curve for babies my age, but instead of my line going horizontal the past month or so, it's finally taken a turn upwards! Dr. Okey was delighted to see my curve moving normally again, and asked mommy what she did. Mom said she didn't do much except feed me rice cereal and baby food more often, and I actually like it! Veggies are my favorite, fruit is a distant second. Officially I weighed in at 12lbs 6oz and measured 24 1/2 inches. However to every good thing there's an opposite, and in this case, it's against my poor mommy. Since they found microscopic amounts of blood in my stool when conducting all the tests on me, mom hasn't been able to eat dairy products for a couple weeks. This has been torture for her, and I feel bad for her, but it's been good for me! I might be allergic to the milk protein from all the dairy she used to eat. I guess it can get into her breast milk. Hopefully she can have it again in the near future, as long as it doesn't affect me to badly. Check out the secret to my most recent success:Monday, April 02, 2007
