Week 3

Carter's three week birthday turned out to be a little too eventful. Thursday night I was holding him and he stiffened up and started shaking and then had tons of spit up coming out of his mouth. I was worried he had some kind of seizure so we went to the Children's Hospital ER. Since he is so young they kept him for two days of observation, did all kinds of tests and hooked an iv up with antibiotics in case he had a infection. This was heartbreaking to watch my sweet baby have a iv on his hand, get x rayed and be in his little hospital bed. Thankfully all the tests were normal and the doctors determined he had been choking on acid reflux which caused him to stop breathing and "seize up" but it was not a seizure. He scared his mama to death! We are so happy he is ok and we are home now. Hopefully that's the end of any eventful times for awhile.
