Katie and I visited the ped's office today while Kelton was at preschool.
In a few weeks we will be seeing a pediatric opthamologist for her yucky eye. The pink eye that we've treated 3x, 4 if you count trying breastmilk, is from a tear duct that is somehow clogged and not draining well, leaving us with recurrent cases of conjunctivitis.
She'll now be getting a whole tab of the prevacid instead of 1/2. If we don't see any improvement, we'll schedule to see a pediatric gastroenterologist. If things do get better our ped still wants to try to wean her off of it around 9mo and if we can't successfully do that, we'll see the gastro. I almost figure we should just go ahead and schedule because we're doing solids again and while it was going good for awhile, she's constipated again. It's super frustrating because breastmilk and prunes aren't exactly at constipating combination.
The eczema in her diaper area is still spreading, but apparently not much of a concern. We're supposed to continue putting aquaphor on it. It works really well and since Kelton's eczema started around 4mo old, I bet I've spent a couple hundred dollars on it cause it's not cheap stuff.
Think of us around 6:30am tomorrow morning. That's when we arrive at the surgery center for Kelton's tubes and adenoid removal. He's not scared at all. I know he'll do great. We've promised him Starbucks on the way home. (Mommy's excited about Starbucks too!)
