First of all, when I was pregnant, my thyroid wasn't producing enough hormones to support me and the baby. So I was put on medication to regulate my thyroid. Now that I'm not pregnant I went back for more blood work to see if my medication needed some adjusting. Well, my results are back and I no longer have to take thyroid medication! YAY!!! I'm awful at remembering pills! So it's a good thing I don't have to take anymore! Second, I have had a killer sore throat for about a week now and it's just awful!!! It hurts to swallow, it hurts to eat and it hurts to talk. I have never had a sore throat this bad before. While I was at the doctors for my thyroid I had him check my throat for me and he tested me fore strep. I don't have strep thank goodness but I do have viral blisters on the back of my throat. The only advice I got was drink plenty of liquids and wash my hands and don't cough on anyone. I've gotten cough drops and throat spray and they only help my throat for a minute at the most. I'm starting to get really sick of my throat!

Logan has been spitting up a lot for the past couple weeks. We've been trying different formulas to see if there's one he likes better and he doesn't like any of them. Our latest formula was a soy formula and he does a lot better on that one but he still spits up a lot. You can tell his tummy doesn't feel good because he'll be super fussy after he eats. So I called his doctor and we went in to see her. She gave us a formula to try for a week. If this formula doesn't work she said it's probably reflux and he'll get a medication for it. The evening we tried this formula we could tell this was NOT going to work! He cried the whole time we fed him the bottle and the look on his face was just saying, "What in the heck are you giving me mom?! It doesn't feel good!" So we just went back to the soy for the time being. I called the doctor back and she's out of town for 5 days. So I left a message with the on-call doctor and I haven't been called back yet. I feel so bad for my little man! I can just tell he doesn't feel good! So we'll see if I get a call back tomorrow.

On a happier note, the past two nights have been WONDERFUL!!! The first night Logan only woke up twice to be fed and went right back to sleep afterward. Then last night he only got up ONCE!!!! I LOVED IT!!!! :D We're crossing our fingers for three nights in a row. Pray for us! Hee hee!
