Cha Ching

I always heard before and during the pregnancy that babies will cost you an arm and a leg by the time they are 18. Something to the tune of a quarter million?? 

I certainly believe it after today. 

I had to take X to the doctor because he is becoming frantic during his feedings. Apparently, he has acid reflux and you know what that means? Frequent doctor visits and prescriptions. Sweet.

The kid is not even a week old yet and we are already spending a bundle on his medication. 

Mom was gracious enough to buy us another months supply of diapers, wipes and a few baby clothes since our little guy likes to puke on everything and goes through about 7 shirts and half a container of wipes per day.

I'm starting to think about going back to work again. I know I have to, it is just dependent on when I can get time to interview and well, who will hire me knowing that I have a little one. Granted, interviewing while NOT pregnant is going to be a ton easier than it was interviewing 
while pregnant. Child care arrangements still bother me every day. 

Ugh. Well, for now, I need to rest and get the little guy healthy and strong so he can go to daycare and not reek havoc. 

This little bundle of joy is going to cost me a bundle.
