I'm sure I'll post on how it goes.<br /><br />On the sleep/reflux thing: 1. Do you have a bouncy chair? That has a less constricting strap, so might be easier to use for sleeping. Pumpkin slept in her bouncy chair from time to time, whenever we thought it would help to have her head elevated (her sleep was so... disordered, I guess, is the way to say it, that we really had no idea what helped or not).<br /><br />2. They give really refluxy kids meds (heartburn meds, basically) and my friends and family who have had kids that needed this speak of miraculous improvements in sleep. I wouldn't wait for that 6 month check up if I were you!Cloudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09317847285050447789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36516879.post-22976770474132664442012-08-27T16:27:24.154-05:002012-08-27T16:27:24.154-05:00H had that same sort of ThinkMath and let me tell ...H had that same sort of ThinkMath and let me tell you, it is FUCKED. UP. We couldn't help him (because HELLO WE DIDN'T LEARN THAT WAY) and he was so frustrated that he just went, "Screw it. I'm bad at math." And he has had that mindset for years. YEARS. He also had the mandated reading time (our school called it Sustained Silent Reading) and I begged BEGGED the teacher and principal to let him be pulled out during SSR to have math help and nope. He had to read. Which he loved, btw, because he was freaking good at the reading. I was so pissed. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16195473301571017058noreply@blogger.com
