I took Jake back to the doctor today for a follow up visit. I've become such a worry wart that I had convinced myself the child had epilepsy or something. So I videotaped him yesterday in the midst of one of his "moments" and let the doctor see it. She assures me that he shows classic signs of discomfort from acid reflux. SO, he will be taking Xantax now as well as the Prevacid and we're trying a different formula that's thicker so it might stay down better for him. We still don't know what causes his little tremors, but I'm hoping that he will just grow out of those. His doctor just said to wait a few months to see what happens before worrying about going to see any sort of specialist. He is such a trooper. I can just see him trying so hard to be happy sometimes and then he'll get a spasm or something in his tummy and just has to cry it out. He is currently in the middle of a three hour nap since he missed his morning nap due to the doctor visit. I'll post more pictures when I can actually get one of him not crying!
P.S. Jake's current favorite toy=his own two feet
so much relief when you know your child is "normal" and nothing major is going on.
ReplyDeleteI love that he plays with his feet. Mags has just found her last week and is getting more and more into them. So fun!
