Symptoms

This weekend I have been noticing little things in Ella that the doctor said to contact him if Ella had any of the DWS symptoms. DWS means Dandy Walker Syndrome for those of you that dont know. I will be using the this for short. Friday night around 1AM I started listening to the way Ella was breathing. She would take two deep breaths, than stop breathing for a few seconds and then keep repeating the same breathing pattern. I got scared and thought it would be best to wake her up. I picked her up, put her on my shoulder, changed her diaper and kept trying for about a half hour. Ella didnt wiggle or move for about a half hour. Finally she had some movement and woke up.

Today I fed her a bottle and about 10 minutes later she threw up the whole bottle. Not knowing if this is concerning with her syndrome. I emailed Dr Brockmeyer to see if or what we should look for or if I need to bring her in to be evaluated. So far I have not received a reply, but being Sunday it might take till tomorrow Monday to get a response.

On a good note, When we have tummy time with Ella she now raises her head up. So far we are headed to make one of the many milestones!
