In 2006, I met the man of my dreams, unexpectedly, at the cross roads of life; we married and waved goodbye to our lives as we knew it, and together began a new chapter without looking back. It took almost 2 years to conceive Emily. She was born 3 weeks early, had reflux, colic and GI issues from the start. Her stomach appeared big from infancy, though we assumed it to be a “Buddha belly”. No doctor took notice even after pointing it out. She never presented any thriving issues which I feel aided the difficult time in diagnosing her. We had her evaluated with many specialty doctors, children’s hospitals, etc. with no findings. Every appointment I felt judged as a neurotic Mom. I knew something was wrong, yet nothing was found. |
