So, almost overnight, Sweet Pea grew up on me.
Started taking better naps.
Started going longer between feedings.
Started staying awake more and in a better mood while awake.
Started sleeping through the night.
Stopped with the vomit/spit up almost completely.
Of course, she still takes medicine for it.
And I am still very strict with my diet.
It's like I told the doctor...
As long as I'm good, she's good.
But with all this growing up
And all these changes
I thought maybe, just maybe, her digestive system was growing up and changing too.
It had been so long since we had a bad day, maybe we could try solids.
Maybe I could try a slice of pizza.
(Little Caesar's Hot-n-Ready's are a must for the kids every Sunday after church.)
Vince instructed me to "step away from the pizza."
I stepped away.
Honest.
But I did decide to try Sweet Pea on rice cereal for breakfast.
She took it okay.
Not bad for a first try.
But then, she got a little cranky.
And chewing on her fingers is automatic now
except
this morning
after breakfast
her hands were gagging her.
She went down for her nap fine and slept fine.
She even ate her next meal fine.
And then
it all
came up.
Not once.
Not twice.
Three times.
So now,
we are both cranky
and we both have had several changes of clothes
and I am so bummed!
I have to go do laundry now.

I am so sorry! Tell me her bdate again? (you know how I am with dates!!) Anyway, know that we tried rice cereal at like 5 or 6 months and she had a terrible time. Laid off and retried again at 7 1/2 months with oatmeal and she did fine. With her sensitive tummy, I think it needed more time to mature. Now she can do rice or oatmeal. Maybe give her some time? if she is sleeping well and content, I would say wait :)
So sorry!! Hopefully a little more time will help!!
