Update...

Kaylee had her appointment at Children's Hospital today and she had an ultrasound and an upper GI done. The ultrasound cleared her of pyloric stenosis, as well as checked out her kidneys and intestines. They decided to go ahead with the upper GI to make sure there were no strictures in her esophagus. All tests were clear, but the upper GI showed her reflux. It was actually pretty cool to watch, not so cool for Kaylee (poor girl). As soon as she started drinking the barium, it came right back up. She will remain on her medication, and if that doesn't help they will think about other options for her. Kaylee was a trooper today. She was not allowed to eat for 5 and a half hours. This was especially long for her since we reduced the amount she was eating, but we were feeding her very frequently to help keep it down. She was not at all happy about not being able to eat, and wasn't leaving mine or Josh's arms for nothing. As long as she was with one of us, she was calm and did really good. The doctors were really great with her and we were relieved to hear she didn't have to have surgery.
