Rant!!! Why? 😩
I just need to get some things off my chest 😩
My baby is only 4.5 months. She is the happiest of babies I have ever seen! She smiles at anyone who talks to her. She puts herself to sleep & can sleep up to 13 hours at night. She only fusses when she’s hungry or in an uncomfortable position to sleep.
Now, why is it that this wonderful child has SO MANY THINGS going on? 😩 She’s had GERD since about 4 weeks old. She got 2 colds back to back that made her really congested & she had conjunctivitis at 8 weeks old. After that, she’s had 2 Upper Respiratory Infections that caused her to have to use the nebulizer with saline water around the clock for 5 days every 4-6 hours & then twice a day for 2 weeks. When we saw her GI, she informed us that the baby’s anus is too close to her vagina which is the reason that when she poops she strains really hard & tears up. What this means is that when she starts eating more solids if it becomes too difficult for her to poop, she will need surgery. This week, I was concerned because her poop was really pale almost white & she has had diarrhea. She normally poops once a day. When I took her to her doctor yesterday, her stool tested positive for blood.
Why? 😩 My poor baby. Can anyone relate? Or is my baby the only one with a thousand things wrong? I know it could be worse but now she has an extremely bad diaper rash that is causing the Strawberry Hemangioma that she has on her left butt cheek to bleed.
Sorry for the long post! If you got this far, thanks for reading 👏🏻
