The solution to the problem


Just a little flashback of my angel's birthday!

Thanks everyone for your kind words and prayers on our behalf while we have been to the doc to get our baby back to normal. Yesterday we went into radiology at the hospital to get a Upper GI to figure out why Jett could not keep anything down beyond water, pedialyte, and crackers. He drake about 3 oz. of barium while they took x-rays of his digestion process, it lasted about 15-20 mins. The radiologist was waiting to see if it would come back up and if so she said it was acid reflux. Just then it started to come back up so we are certainly happy with the outcome yes he will still have a few issues but at least we know what he has and we have medicine to treat it. The doc put no refills on his medication so when it is gone he will reevauluate at that time. The medicine smells like cream soda so I can't imagine it tastes too bad and so far he has kept everything down and is making up for a week of not eating. He eats everything in sight and wants more. Yay my baby is back to normal!

I am so glad he is on his road to recovery and you guys were able to find out what is wrong and it wasn't something too serious. Jett sure is a cute little man!

Boy I am glad that it was reflux and not something terrible. Yeah for meds to that can help. We know all about reflux in this house. At least you can be greatful, that you didn't have the screaming for hours and hours and oh did I mention hours. Thumbs up for technology and medicine. Truly gifts from up above. Give that little guy a kiss for us.

I am so glad that they found what the problem was so they could fix it. It is no fun when they can't figure out what is happening and then have no solution. Hope it keeps getting better from here on out.
