Reflux - for a baby?

If you told be that a baby could shot a perfectly circular funnel of milk a foot and a half before it arched I would I have called you crazy. That would also have been previous to Ella's presentation of "Let there be milk!". Ella started to shows signs of discomfort and actually performed the act as described above more and more frequently. The doctor confirmed that in fact Ella may have a mild case of Acid Reflux. I say mild case because Ella has gained 3.5 lbs in 30 days and is tipping the scales at 11 lbs, there is no doubt she is getting the nourishment she needs!

Ella has been on her meds now for about a week and seems to be much more comfortable. I only wish I could have caught her on tape, now that would something for Youtube!
