Yum Yum!

Dear Lexi Lu: You are so stinkin' cute and I love that you are liking sucking on your big toe lately, but boy, you have been tough to figure out. You are kind of a fussy baby. I thought once you hit 4 months you would kind of get better, but the last week has seemed worse. I feel bad as your mom because I think it is something with your tummy because you seem to like pressure on your tummy. You either liked to be held with my arms against your tummy or up on my shoulder with my shoulder on your tummy. We have been trying zantac for acid reflux but that hasn't seemed to help too much. You have never been too spitty but every time I would lay you down on your back you would scream. I think the zantac is helping with that some. It is kind of sad for me as your mom because I want to help you but I sure don't know what the problem is. You cry when you nurse especially on the right side, but you won't have anything to do with a bottle of formula. You will drink a bottle with breast milk in it though. I have tried changing a million things in my diet but that is super hard because there is so much a person eats in a day and I am not exactly sure when what I eat shows up in your milk. I do know sleep is super important for you to get. You are still liking to be swaddled and you like to sleep best in your crib. When you are happy you are so cute and giggly, but that changes so fast and then you cry. Hopefully as your little intestines develop we can figure this out. We love you Lexi Lu!
Love,
Mom
