I have been noticing today that Will is making new sounds. He is also feeding more frequently and in higher volume. He is getting to be a little chubby now. We looked at some old photos today and confirmed that he is indeed putting on weight. Yaay! He is looking good and we are feeling good about how things are developing for him.

I feel like I may be getting sick though and I believe Will and I are shareing a yeast (candida) infection (me in the breasts, he in the mouth). I have heard different things about what to do from the Pediatrician, OB, my naturopathic doctor, and info found on the internet. Some say treat it myself, some say get in right away for proper diagnosis and treatment, It is confusing and frustrating. Feedings are now painful but bearable.

I have called a “mom friend” to get advice on the candida. I also asked my Doctor friend her thoughts on what I should. Both of these calls I had to leave messages so we shall see what they say.
