6 weeks old!



kyli is now 6 weeks old! She is delicious. We love every moment with her (although the sleepless nights are rough, I must say) and she is starting to smile when we make faces at her! ;-) We also discovered that our little girl is gassy. And I do me GASSY. She has been crying about several times during the night- which is hard for us because we have exhausted all of our efforts to console her. From placing her in different positions, to rocking her to sleep, and also making laps around our house, we have been struggling to find a solution for her discomfort. We're hanging in there otherwise. We had a bit of scare yesterday when she vomited her feeding-which sent us rushing to the doctors. Because of her condition, we have to closely monitor her intake and outake- especially when it comes to any abnormal vomiting, spit up, etc. So far, so good. We have been feeding her smaller dosages of breast milk more frequently and the vomiting has stopped! Please pray for her full recovery. At times, its hard to believe what she has been through in her short lifespan. We continue to pray and be the best parents we can to her, to help her recover from the trauma her body has been through. She gain about 1 lbs over the last two weeks, which is very encouraging.
