Ezra Is/Was Pukey
Yesterday Ezra had a day of being pukey. Pukey because the spit up was more frequent, greater in quantity, and sometimes chunky. And he was really fussy at times and crying more.
The pediatrician was called. Pediatrician said we should make sure after Ezra is fed to hold him upright for a half hour for it could be Ezra has acid reflux or just needs more time to burp. Pediatrician said to call back on Monday for it could also be Pyloric Stenosis, which something very serious and could require surgery.
-v- and I took turns sleeping last night to make sure everything was okay and to hold him up right after feedings. We are both tired. But Ezra hasn’t puked up anything but the normal amount of spit up, and he has been calm and a normal fussy baby. Best of all is the amount of poop and pee Ezra has created is normal, and because poop and pee creation is at normal amounts it is less likely to be Pyloric Stenosis. We know his poop and pee amounts are normal because we have been recording all his feedings, moods, diaper changes, and spit up amounts since yesterday then comparing with what we have observed during the past weeks. We will still be calling the pediatrician on Monday, and we will still be recording his fluid input and output.
