Josh had surgery on Thursday to replace tubes in his ears. His had finally fallen out after 18 months and he immediately started getting ear infections again. He also got his anoides out to maybe help with ear and sinus infections. So, other than a REALLY cranky boy things have been going okay. Then comes Friday night when he starts running a fever and throwing up. He wakes up feeling fine on Saturday and now tonight he is all chilled again. I'm waiting for him to throw up again as I lay with him and type this... we'll see how the night goes.
On the migraine front... I have started weaning myself off Topamax, which works extremely well for preventing my migraines, however is not good when you eventually want to get pregnant again. So, I thought this weekend would be a good time to see if I can go off it yet. So far, so good... caffiene and Aleve seem to be taking care of the headaches I am getting. This is a significant improvement since my bad migrianes, like the ones I was getting for a month straight, don't get better with anything.
I started pulling fall clothes out for the boys and am very sad to say that Noah is STILL wearing 6-12 month clothing. I thought at 15 months we might move up a size, but alas, we have not. So, I did decide he is going to wear more jeans and "big boy" looking clothing instead of one peice outfits. He's so little that everyone things he's really young and walking. Which, he was at 9 months when he started, but he is now at the age when most babies are walking so he doesn't deserve all of the praise and attention he's getting for it anymore.
So, that's life in this Rozema nutshell... time to plug in the laptop and see if Josh will stay sleeping with me not in the room. (I know, this is a REALLY bad bedtime routine).

I'm sorry you have sick kids...and migraines! NOt a good combo!! Here's to hoping this week is better!!
I'll be thinking of you and hope that this week is better than the last. :) How was Young? (I hope you didn't have migraines then...it is too relaxing there. :)) We were sad to miss it this year.
My name is Melissa Dunn and i would like to show you my personal experience with Topamax.
I am 34 years old. Have been on Topamax for 4 weeks now. week 1- 25mg in PM, week 2- 50 mg in PM, week 3- 75mg in PM----still at 75mg and is working well. in the 1st week I had 4 migraines and I have not had a migraine since and I am doing well. I think I found a good dosage. I have lost 1 lb a week on Topamax, but that is not a negative side effect for me. I was on Relpax before and it worked well, but with insurance 6 pills were $30 and I was going thru 6 pills quickly.
I have experienced some of these side effects -
soda taste bad, tingling in toes and fingers, tired
I hope this information will be useful to others,
