Stomach woes!

So this week we got a taste of what the stomach bug is like with a toddler. Brie got a pretty nasty case this past Friday and is finally starting to feel better. We are not sure where she got it from as well have been pretty isolated at home, but she defiantly got it somewhere. Nanna Miller came to visit with Brie for Friday while daddy was working and thank goodness she did. Mommy could have cared for a sick Brie, but add in a 3 week old who we are trying to prevent from getting it and it would have been a disaster. Hopefully mommies antibodies will protect Sophie so that she does not get it. On a positive note my house is now all clean and got a through cleaning this morning with Lysol on every surface. I guess Brie knew that the floors had not been mopped in a few weeks so she made sure to christen every room.

Our little Sophie is doing well. She is a very content baby. She does enjoy being held, but is happy to sit in her swing and look around. Sophie likes to eat and occasionally gets her days and nights mixed up, but the last 2 nights she has only been up twice, sleeping in 4 hour increments. A wonderful change from the 2 hours she was getting up the previous nights. I think she knew mommy needed a break. Last night we weighed her and she is up to 7 lbs 3 oz already. She looks bigger and her cheeks are getting chubby. It is a welcome change from when Brie was an infant. Brie grew very slowly, was always difficult to feed, and had colic. Sophie does seem to have some reflux and is uncomfortable after feedings so tomorrow we will call the pediatrician to get her started on something. I don't want to have her associate eating with pain as Brie did. I hate to put her on medication at such a young age, but if it makes her feel better it is worth it. She seems to want to comfort eat instead of causing an aversion. This is fine right now, but makes it difficult for mommy to get anything done. We have yet to introduce a bottle to Sophie, but will have to very soon.
