Life since the PH Probe Test
Since Lydia's PH Probe test on Monday, we have not seen a real change in how she feels. As we suspected, we shouldn't have held high expectations about the oatmeal in the formula. It seems that everytime we try something new, she seems a lot better for a few days...then, she falls back into the same crying patterns. It figures that she seemed to reflux much more since we've been home...so that it didn't appear on the test. I put her back on the Nexium yesterday, so hopefully that in conjunction with the thicker formula will give her some relief. I am really worried now about her bad suck. I am trying to get in touch with the speech therapist that we saw at the Lake to find out if there is anything else we should try. I will probably also look into an OT consult for more answers. On top of everything, she has developed a cold...so the congestion doesn't help with feeding issues. It could possibly contribute to her sucking difficulties, but she was having difficulty with her sucking before that too. I'm not sure if maybe her crying during eating has to do with the fact that she can't suck well, and she is frustrated because the food can't get to her fast enough. I'll try to post again when I get more info.
