Drew has always been a little congested, but it got pretty bad when he had his cold a few weeks ago, and hadn't improved as much as I expected afterward. In talking to my mom, I learned that her side of the family has a tendency to be congested as a result of milk intolerance. This first movie is what he sounded like when he woke up at 4 am tuesday. This is not out of the norm for him. Then he coughs/spits up mucous and is fussy until at least 10 every day. Once he's cleared himself, he's a happy kiddo.

So I decided to try soy formula for him instead. I expected a couple days to see a difference. The doctor told me I should see a difference within a week, if that was the problem. This is the difference one night made for him: (After a good night's sleep.)

Hooray for new formula!! He has not had a morning like this since we've been home!! He used to be miserable all morning. Today he has played and talked and been so happy!!

Plus we're off ativan completely now! What a week.
