Caleb is 3months Today

Caleb turned 3months old yesterday, 1month adjusted. It is amazing to see how far he has come in the past 3months. He has doubled in weight since birth, as of 4/1/10 he weighed in at 6lbs 4oz!!! We head back to the pediatrician this morning and will know what his current weight is. He had his first smile at mommy and daddy on the 9th! and oh does he have a cute little smile.

March 26th Caleb had to have 2 hernia's repaired, we had a awesome surgeon and thankfully he checked the other right side inguinal and he ended up having a hernia there too that just hadn't popped out yet. So he repaired that one too. Caleb did very well through the surgery, and we ended up spending the night there at the hospital due to his prematurity. Caleb was back to his happy self within a few days.

last week we had an appt with his GI dr. concerning his liver and then to talk about his reflux. labs were taken and came back very good, we will be on Actigall for 1 more month and then we are done. Follow-up isn't for 2months. Its a huge blessing to see the dr. appt's start to slow down. While we were with the GI dr. we talk about his reflux, and his current medication (zantac, his Pediatrician put him on it) has pretty much stopped working. His GI dr has put him on Nexium and we started that on Saturday, we have been told that it can take up to 3weeks for it to work. This is due to the medication working on the problem and not just masking the symptoms.

Over all Caleb is such a happy baby!!! he is now sleeping 4hrs straight through the night, and we couldn't be happier to let him sleep and not be on the strict 3hr schedule! God has truly blessed us with an amazing little boy!
