Praise the Lord!

My newest little buddy, Elliott, has been having some health problems. He's been battling an acid reflux issue since he was born. Every time he eats, he spits up most of his milk. He's even lost some weight which isn't good for a 10 week old. Today he went in for an Upper GI and was given a good report. There's nothing anatomically wrong with him. Praise the Lord for that! it looks like the little fella is just dealing with a burpy, gassy tummy. This is different than colic. Colic is not necessarily related to digestive or intestinal problems (although it CAN be).

We are just happy that there is nothing physically wrong with Elliott. He just seems to be dealing with normal baby stuff. Easy for me to say though. I'm not the one trying to console him when he's screaming at the top of his lungs :-) Hang in there young parents... this too shall pass. I promise.
