Yes I know been quiet lately and for those who know you know why :) Just been a crazy week filled with lots of ups and downs. Fortunetly ups seem to be in the future as I have made some progressive discoveries.
Thinks are still going well with all of us babies are cuter then ever especially little Claire bear who lives life so happy and smiley all the time ( unless shes hungry ) coco on the other hand is truly a shithead never content with what shes got and a little brat. Strange how they still have what seems to be completely opposite personalities.
The weather is getting a little better so amy was able to take em for a nice walk yesterday which is good for them all to get out of the house now and then.
As for coco's rash she is on the no formula or dairy diet completely for a week still. It seems to be helping however it is still hard to say if it was the ABC mat or the formula but we will introduce formula again after this week. She really is missing her formula bad and getting even more grouchy due to it but hey who can blame her a baby needs formula!
If it is formula and she gets diagnosed the state will pay for this very very expensive formula which I hope she doesn't need but we will definitely need the help affording this.
Alright im off to work busy days lined up.

Coco updates
After a visit to the specialist for coco then a visit back to our doctor we have determined we need to completely cut all dairy products for little coco for a week. After this period of time then we can try and narrow down what is causing her problem. Specialist lady said that most the time if it is dairy allergy that includes soy milk so it is best to stop all.
This is a very sensitive deal as taking formula away form a baby is not a common practice. Even for a week during such an important development process can be detrimental to there well being in the future. Plus its hard for a baby as they have had this there whole life and your just taking it away. Plus its tough work for mommy hehe. Just ask amy the crap she is trying to go through to figure out what to feed her. Oh and the work of trying to clean up a baby that young after feeding.... Then there is of course the fact she has twins so after this she has to bottle feed the other baby hehe..
It has made for an interesting time a lot of work and a bit fussy baby as we are on day 2 of this no formula. If we do determine it is a milk allergy there is a special formula for sale that is extremely costly. We do not know how much yet but we were told to go and beg for a sample to see if the babies would eat it as buying a whole one and wasting would be a tragedy!
Good news though if she is diagnosed then we will get assistance from health care in buying this. Thank god for that as we are getting low on the coinage these days.
