Kyleigh's Two Month Visit

I took Kyleigh in today for her 2 month check-up. Since the last weight check she has not gained. She is still 7 lbs 2 oz. She has grown to 21 inches. Her head circumference is 13 3/4. Although her height is now on the growth chart, her weight is going backwards on the chart. She is still less than 3% in body weight. This is concerning for her doctor. Given that she has inconsistent eating patterns and isn't gaining weight at the rate expected, the pediatrician is referring her to a GI doctor at Duke. Until then he has changed her acid reflux medicine in hopes to give her some relief and help with the fussiness. While at the appointment the doctor witnessed her have a severe reflux attack and decided that Zantac was no longer the best medicine. She is resting well right now as she received her shots today and it seems to have made her sleepy.
