Spit-up Be Gone


As you can see from the picture, Mason has a spit-up problem. He pukes buckets all day long. It makes me feel so bad. We go through about 4 bibs and burp cloths a day and my carpets and clothing get drenched. It's gross. Well, no more. I was told that milk and dairy products could be the cause and if I stop consuming those types of things the spitting up would stop. Unfortunately for me it worked. I haven't had any uncooked dairy products for about 5 days now and Mason didn't spit up yesterday or today. It's awesome that he doesn't spit up so much, but I just love dairy. It's going to be hard to go a month without, but I can do it. It's only until November then Mason will be 6 months and I am going to stop nursing.
I'm only going to stop, because I want LASIK and I have to be nursing free for 90 days before I can get a consult and I have to have the procedure done before my Flex spending account goes away in March. Yes, it's selfish, but at least I made it to 6 months. That's a lot better then I thought I would do.
