Life with Our Itty Bitty Baby Girl

For the first time in her 463 days of life, Becca just went to bed with no medicines.  For the first time. 
At her 15-month appointment, we decided to discontinue her Zantac, which she’s been getting twice a day for reflux since before she came home.  She’s had Tylenol the past couple of days to give [...]
