How's everyone doing?

Ugh....good day for a check-in. I'll post this on the Bump tonight and again Monday since it's so late tonight. (8pm CST)

So....we had a horrible green and bloody diaper today. I'm at my flippin' wits end I tell ya. I'm going to call the pedi on Monday and ask him to do a RAST test. This is ridiculous to say the least. I've been eating shrimp/veggies/rice for dinner the last 2 nights...so I'm not sure if it's seafood/shellfish now. Ugh, I am so frustrated!

A seems fine as far as his behavior (not fussy or anything). He's gaining great - I weighed him on our scale twice and both times it was 15 lbs (my weight w/him - my weight alone). But seeing those diapers is beyond heartbreaking. I always end up crying because I really don't know what else I can do. So for now...it's back to rice, plain chicken breasts, veggies (no broccoli though). I just want him to have normal diapers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I sure hope you ladies are having better luck than me. I can't (or Alexander can't) seem to catch a break with this.

It's been a while!

(now that song is going to be in my head!)

Missed ya ladies....how is everyone doing?

Alexander is growing like a weed....no more noodle arms/legs, he's all pudgy now! He just got over a bad week of bloody/mucousy green diaps. I think it might be caramel coloring (tried the Tri-vi-Sol for 1st time) or eggs. I am doing an elimination diet until he has good diaps again for a full week. Last time I thought it was hamburger, but I haven't had any beef for about 2.5 weeks.

But he's doing better now, still the happy little guy he normally is! Can't wait to hear how everyone is doing!
