Parenting Just Got A Whole Lot More Expensive
Alan is off soy, Mom is off dairy products, he's been put on medication for reflux...but his crying spells are still pretty intense.  But lucky for me, a client of Good Neighbor Pet Sitting happens to be a pediatrician.  While talking doggy care, we breached the Alan subject.  One of the things that we still don't know much about is how much food Alan actually gets while breast feeding, so hunger could be a reason for his sleeplessness and/or fussiness.  But supplements to mothers milk have always been of interest to me for when Angie goes back to work anyway, for emergency situations if anything else, so my client suggested Nutramigen.  Nutramigen is hypoallergenic and very expensive.  From what I can see, it costs almost $10 more per can on average.  And for people that weren't intending on formula before Alan was born, its a rude awakening.
