Thanks natalia for that site the foru, ive
been readinga ll the other posts, prob
read alot more since its another one of
those nights lol of no sleep, I was
talking to hubby about the acid reflux ,
he was asking what u can do for it iwas
like take em to the dr and get em on meds
, I think he was wishing there was
something we could do now lol. But it
sucks because even so I cant get her to
the dr this week. Hubby has my car and I
dont know how long , they do appointments
same day so I cant like make one for a
diff day then he can get off , hes out in
the range all week shooting too. They are
training right now in case they go to
afghanistan. I think I might print out
the symptom list from that site and bring
it when I do get to the dr wich hopefully
the sooner the better. I already got dark
circles under my eyes lmao.

If you are unable to attend because of
work commitments they have to fit you in
on another day, you have to be able to
give your employer notice that you will be
absent.
Alternatively as they are same day appts
only, he could book any day of and you
could make an appt for that day.
Why don't you ring and speak to someone,
tell them what you think /feel and ask for
advice on making appts if they think this
or that and so on.
They might even be able to tell you of an
over the counter med that you could try to
begin with.

yeah but they are limited on otc meds they
have in the grocery store and somet they
have at the pharmacy since they arent
available at the commisary. Im not sure
if they require an appt for a prescription
though. So weird here gah wheres my
walgreens when I need it lol. They used
to be able to make appts farther out but
they changed it since normally people call
when they are sick and by the time youd be
seen u wouldnt be anymore. Hopefully
hubby can get a day off or something to
get an appt in. I still gotta do my post
partum one but thats not as important as
her being seen. Sinc ei couldnt do it the
same day since who knows how long we would
be at the clinic the pediatrician is never
on time with patients. But jason knows
that if it is acid reflux tht pretty much
we need to go to the drs to get it figured
out. They have ashuttle bus, on base
only, sorry my typin sucks imholding her
and shes asleep but igot the boppy pillow
too so im sitting all akward. They got
taxis here, but haha I do not know how to
call one. Ive only ever taken one once at
the train station wich they got like 50
outside the place just sitting there. Ive
talkedt o the drs before abotu my
gallbladder thing . Wich for mine I
couldnt be seen at the clinic and they
told me to jsut wait until the pain
returned and go to the er and get checked
for gallstones wich I went trhough
symptoms over the phone of what ihad and
what I read . So im sure they would agree
it kinda sounds like acid reflux. Im just
not sure if they would wanna diagnose
based on symptoms since she is gaining
weight fine as of jan 17 she is 10lbs 6oz
and is now 4 weeks old. Or if they would
wanna run tests cuz idont think they have
equipment there for certiain tests
is there bus service
available, or a taxi or
something?
i wish, if we livd in base housing on the
base and not outside the base id have a
bus, they have shuttle busses that go all
over the base but thats just it only one
base.
For all iknow the breastfeeding could be
the cause, who knows . There might be
certain foods etc but im not sure. Alot
of the times it is dairy but I dont have
alot of dairy in my diet as it is. So im
supposed to be tryin to take more dairy in
not eliminate it. Somehow I think that
the dr will ask about my diet etc and
blame it on that and not figure out for
sure because I know with adiet change it
can be weeks or longer before the cryings
gone when u play the elmination game of
figuring out whats causing it but my diet
hasnt changed since she was born really.
Its like the same with my gallstones they
say certain foods trigger it but I can eat
that food I thought caused it without
problems , sometimes iend up in pain
sometimes not . But I supplemented
formula with the same affect. It seems
like now when u try and lay her on her
back is when she screams alot , but shes
usually quiet while your chaning a diaper.
The game of trying to figure out whats
wrong with your child lol. I just hope if
I got o the dr soon the dr just doesnt
tell me its all normal because idont think
it is, I didnt think it was with my son
either but back then I never thought of
acid reflux just knew of colic, and he had
thrush quite a few times.

I hope your hubby can get a day off soon
so you guys can get to the doctor... It
has to be hard living in a different
country, not having anyone to help &
no friends/family around to help you out.
I think you're strong for just not going
completely insane because if I was in your
position, I know I would be!!

its not so bad, we are 8 min from the
base, I wo uld hate if we lived farther
out, the only place I go is on base and
ive driven to the hospital by myself when
I was pregnant for my prenatal appts. I
hate driivng offbase alone in case
something happens I wouldnt know what to
do not knowing german or anything. Id
freak out. Im just hoping he either gets
a day off or gets his car fixed asap. I
cant even go to the store and get milk and
juice that we are out of right now and
last night he didnt come home till like
9:30pm

I think that you need to advise your
husband that your children are the most
important things in your lives right now
and not having milk and juice for them is
just wrong. He needs to make
arraingements to take the little on to the
doc and also to the store for food for the
babies.
I didnt think about taking him to work etc
but I think that would be really hard to
do it takes forever to get 2 kids ready to
go anywhere, supposedly ill have my car
the first, he got off early or normal
today and went to the grocery store and
got milk and juice so yay, all I had was
water and koolaid in the house. So I
gotta wait till next month for my post
partum. Jordynne slept last night she fell asleep on
me and I carefully went to thebedroom with
her and she stayed asleep. Right now she
is finally asleep in the bouncy chair, I
wanna move her to the bed or something but
im afraid she will wake up screaming.
Hubby better hope we dont get all 12-14
inches of snow overnight. We dont own a
snow shovel lol he will have to dig the
car out with his hands lmao.
