Followup 3 months

Callie is just changing day by day! She is getting So strong! She is recognizing when Patch is close by, and sometimes she smiles, she smiles at Mommy and Daddy, and really loves bath time :)

Callie has done SO WELL on Neocate! I am SO thankful we found something for our sensitive baby! I kind of expected some sensitivities... Looks like Daddy mostly, but acts like Mommy!

I found out 2 days ago that insurance covered her Nutramigen at 100%, SO, since we are now on a new Rx kind, (OTC, but needs to be ordered via a Rx since not sold in stores), I am starting the process over, and also submitting receipts to get reimbursed. We really didn't buy as much as we thought! THANK YOU to everyone who had purchased some for us, or got samples from your pediatrician friends!

So, here's to hoping that Callie gets 100% coverage on Neocate, so we can have some relief monetarily! they are over $40 a can!

Callie started using a NUK pacifier at daycare "that she would keep in her mouth" they said... so we bought 2, and so far, we have had great luck with it! Thanks Einstein Academy!

Callie still has her cough (that Mommy has too), so she is still sleeping upright and using a humidifier as well as an antibiotic for her ear infection. I am looking forward to the cold going away, so we can go back to seeing how long she will sleep on her back in the bassinet in our room. Plus, I sleep half-way listening to her cough, and making sure she is still breathing! It is a scary feeling! I guess it is Mommy Ears + light sleeper, because at 3 am last night Kahlil heard me say "she just pooped- ugh", and he was like "HOW do you know?", well "I heard it"... weird.

Callie is mumbling more sounds other than her vowels, and has started saying MA and MOM (no connection to me being "MOM", but it is cool to know that this is how the names Mom and Dad come to be in almost all cultures- first few sounds with a vowel after... )

Here are some recent pictures and videos: (Hmm- can I even call it a video anymore?! Here are some "movie clips")

HAPPY CALLIE!

Holding my bottle! Not 100% independent yet, but if it rests on something, she can do it!
