Poor Baby!

Well we found out that she has Cradle Cap as well as bad acne. The acne breakout is because she's allergic to milk products. So she's now being switched to a soy milk product. I have to put baby oil on her head everyday and get the scales off with my nail! yuck! Then she gets shampooed with a product that is for this type of eczema. Then we have a medicated oinment to put on her skin everyday. Add to that she's been colicy last night and tonight. Lou took her for a little while so I could have a break. Man I hope this soy helps!
As far as her weight she's 10 pounds and 11 ounces!! They said to feed her a little less which will be interesting as she's very demanding when she's hungry. She only put on a 1/2 inch in length though. So that's the update. I had to cancel my chiro appointment because the snow was so bad and the roads were a mess. So I will try to go on monday and I'm counting the minutes!

Dodge was on Soy also. Milk formula made his poor tummy very gassy. To this day he is sensitive to it, although not allergic per se. Soy smells really bad! Cradle cap isn't all that uncommon, just one more joy of motherhood! =)
