3-4 months

• Early October, she was diagnosed with acid reflux and prescribed medicine for her excessive spitting up.

• October 14^th- She rolled over for the first time in her crib that morning (back to front). I think it took her so long to roll over, because we had to hold her ALL the time. She is very strong, but didn’t spend a lot of time on the floor awake, because she would just cry and cry.

• Rachel fell asleep in the swing for the first time (with the blowdryer on of course) …YES!!! That is HUGE!
• She falls asleep every night in the swing with the blowdryer (3 ½ - 5 ½ mos).
• I started taking Rachel to the gym with me. She didn’t like to be away from me so she cried a lot. I was paged often, because she was inconsolable.
• October 30^th was the first Sunday the nursery did not page me out of church.
• Late October, MawMaw and PawPaw came to visit. She screamed all the way home from picking Nan and Brad up from the airport. I will never forget that. It was awful. I still don’t know what was wrong with her.
• October 31^st, we visited the Gastroenterologist for excessive spitting up and constant stomach aches. The previous medication did not help much. The doctor prescribed some more medicine that didn’t help much. He encouraged us and said that it is just a matter of time before she grows out of it…hang in there.
• My best guesses as to why she cries all the time: Reflux or gas. She also refuses to eat when I know that she is hungry.
