11 Weeks

Another week older!

No real new milestones to report (unless you count topping off 12 pounds--12 lbs 5 oz to be exact). Matilda continues to be a focused and serious baby some of the time....


And a very happy, silly baby the other part of the time


We are still REALLY struggling through food allergies. She has had a solid week of diapers with blood in them, and one very awful night last Thursday where she pretty much cried in pain all night. It was terrible. Terrible for her. Terrible for us. I am working on cutting out ANYTHING that would be suspect from my diet to protect Tillie, while searching for a good pediatric allergist.

For how sore her little tummy must be, she continues to be smiley, and is working on giggling.

Lesson I learned this week: Sometimes you just need to go to the doctor, even though you know they probably aren't going to be able to tell you anything new, or didn't know.

Greta - my cousin has severe food allergies, and has since he was a baby as well. I emailed his mom to see who he uses as a doctor, and he sees, Michael Wexler. His phone number is: 952 546 6866. Let me know if you want her contact info, she said she would be more than happy to talk, or be a listening ear if you need advice. Hope she's feeling better soon!

I have gone to Dr. Wexler since middle school for my allergies and asthma, he is very thorough and I would definitely recommend him. I believe he treats patients of all ages. His practice is in Minnetonka near Ridgedale Mall, up across from The Cliffs apartments.
