From 6am to 1pm, I was going nonstop and finally had a chance to sit and have something to eat.<br \/>\nTrevor did a lot of sleeping today after a pretty good night of sleeping so now we are keeping him awake as much as possible. Trevor is learning how to smile, and it is really REALLY cute.  I bugged him with the camera to try to catch it, but he doesn&#8217;t do it often enough.<br \/>\nBrendan had a mixed day.  I did everything I could to prevent his episodes of reflux but nothing seemed to make a difference.  It is like he throws up but it only makes it out as far as in to the back of his throat and he doesn&#8217;t spit up. But then it burns his nasal passages and chokes him so he struggles to breathe for a while.  The whole thing causes him lasting discomfort.<br \/>\nThe saline mist seems to help rinse his nose and make it hurt less.  I think the Zantac may be kicking in so even though he still brings up food, it may burn less.<br \/>\nWe go to see the GI doctor at 10:30 tomorrow, I am really hoping he has some other ideas to help Brendan heal and eat.  It is ridiculous that he has to deal with yet again another issue to cause him discomfort.<br \/>\nHe was 8lb 15oz on the nurse&#8217;s scale again today so no growth registered this week.  No loss either though.<\/p>\n<p>I managed to give both boys a bath, Trevor spent time under his mobile while Brendan had his turn.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/projectbat.com\/minibat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/13t05.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-19\" title=\"Week 13 - 13t05.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/projectbat.com\/minibat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/13t05.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The swing keeps Brendan a bit upright, even if it isn&#8217;t swinging.

I tend to feel bad during the day that Trevor gets held more and has more time for bonding. Holding Brendan just makes him hurt, and does not foster any bond right now.  I got him upset and then it took a long time to calm him down. I guess when he is feeling good, I should stop worrying about it. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was a much better day today, I am getting better at multitasking.
