Great News!!!

Today I took Kara to her regular pediatrician and Kara does have thrush. I got the medicine for it and luckily it hadn't gotten too bad. Also, the doctor had already gotten the reports from the tests on Monday. The radiologist's report was quite a bit different than what we were expecting. He reported a MILD case of reflux on both sides and labeled it a ONE out of five. Not a 3 or 4 out of five like the technician was telling us. OH MY GOSH! We are so relieved. Our doctor said that since we are so 'on top of things' and catch Kara's UTIs before she even has a fever or any real signs she doesn't want to just put her on antibiotics until the condition hopefully corrects itself. She said to keep doing what we have been doing and get her back to their office the minute we suspect anything. It really meant a lot to me that she respects/trusts me enough as Kara's mom to take care of this. So, for now, we do nothing. We wait and pray that she just grows out of it without too many more UTIs in the process. Obviously, if she has a lot they will have to put her on the antibiotics long term and do more tests. Right now she is peacefully sleeping in her cozy crib, with new pjs on, clean bedding, and her favorite nighttime cd playing. All is right in her world.
