Last Wednesday Arden turned 8 weeks! That's not quite two months. Two months will officially be this coming Tuesday.
To celebrate, we went to the pediatrician, Dr. Ward, and had her 1st set of vaccinations administered! It was fun, it was exciting, it was....no. Arden did great. She had to have three different needles in her thighs, and take one vaccination orally. She was really fussy for about an hour when we got home, but baby Tylenol is wonderful thing.
We discovered that Arden is struggling with indigestion. It hits her at random times after random feedings. We think it's brought on by what ever Amber has been eating. Amber has been cutting out dairy (the most common cause), but we are suspecting that the true culprit is tomato sauce. Either of those options are a blow to us since we love italian food.
To combat the indigestion, Dr. Ward prescribed Zantak for babies. It should calm her stomach. We're also trying Gripe Water (a natural alternative that helps with gas).
We also purchased a swing that is currently pacifying Arden as I write this entry. It takes up a large amount of space in our apartment....we'll see if it ends up being worth it!
Two weeks ago, Arden got to meet her Uncle Kevin who came into town for his vacation! Arden liked Kevin and I think they'll have many fun times together in the future.
