Could anything possibly be wrong with her??
YES.
*Sigh*
Layla is allergic to dairy. A for-real allergy. I took her in to the Dr. today, and she is allergic to dairy, with slight reactions to egg and soy as well. Urrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh! We now need to do a total elimination diet for her, possibly for as long as another 1.5 years until she is tested again, but hopefully we'll start seeing some changes soon in her: diapers, skin, amount she will eat, and SLEEP. It was actually a big relief to me for the Dr. to say that the #1 thing we might start to see improvement in is sleep, since she won't be in pain at night, etc. THAT made me feel better about NOT going with any sort of "cry it out" sleep training as well!! :) She was not just a "bad sleeper that needed to be trained," etc. She was/is IN PAIN and uncomfortable at night, all depending on how much dairy she has had during the day. So, YAY for Mommy instinct! (But yes, poor Layla...Mommy's instinct should maybe have gotten her in to the Dr. sooner...)
So here we go. 1 week before brother is born and we need to totally revamp what she eats every day. Hopefully this will mean she will eat MORE soon, and sleep better. Fingers crossed!
