We saw the pediatrician on Monday and came to find out Mateo has a double ear infection. I guess that would explain his mood and problems he has had lately. I'm glad I know and that its finally getting taken care of. I hate going to the doctors though because I'm always worried that he's going to pick up something (an illness) while he's there. The ped thought that Mateo probably picked up a cold bug or something while at the cardiologists office and then it turned into an ear infection. Grrrr....I hate that. But, he's doing better and finally sleeping better too. So, yay!
The last couple of days, he has developed a sort of "stranger anxiety" I think. I'm not sure. We were at the post office and when Mateo saw a man in line behind us looking at him, he burst into tears and was just sobbing. It was odd because he is the most personable baby I've ever known. Then at church last night, he was in bible class with us and noticed some of the people in class looking at him and he started crying again, really hard. And he did it again 3 times that night whenever a certain man was near him. Mateo just did not like him....which is weird because this man has held him many times before at church. So, I don't know what's going on with that. I'm sure he'll get over it, I just feel bad whenever he bursts into tears like that.

He saw the physical therapist again yesterday and she is just So impressed with Mateo's development ever since he got his feeding tube removed. He has learned so quickly and she expects him to be walking very soon.
Next week, we have the first GI appointment since having the feeding tube removed, so we'll see what happens there. I need to find out if I can start introducing dairy into his diet....we found out he had a milk protein intolerance, so he's been off of milk since July and that special formula is getting expensive. Hopefully, he can handle it by now!
