The first thing I want to say is: Yes, it gets easier!!!!!! Not just the CAH but everything. Everything about being a new mom (especially for the first time) is so incredibly hard. Add to that a chronic medical condition and it is almost more than you can take. But you will get through it and life will get much more manageable. My son (who is now 11 months old) was given a sodium solution that only the children's hospital was able to make up. He had to take a ton of it and he hated it. I was nursing so I couldn't mix it with his bottle. I really thought giving him the sodium was the hardest thing about his condition. Fortunately my endo took him off the sodium completely when he was just a few months old. I was so relieved! If it is too hard to give the 1/4 teaspoon then try 1/8 of a teaspoon 6 times a day. Maybe if you mixed it up with a little bit of sugar and just put it in his mouth he would take it. We prepare all of our son's doses for the next day at bedtime. That way it is easy to keep track of what he has taken. It was especially helpful at first when I wasn't getting much sleep and all the days were just a blur. Watch your daughter closely if she is ill and keep in contact with your endo and pediatrician. If she develops fever you will probably need to take her to the emergency room since she is so young. During illness it is sometimes necessary to double or triple the cortef dose. Talk to your endo about whether this is necessary and if he wants you to double or triple the medication. (It is not necessary to increase the florinef). Soon your daughter will start sleeping more regularly, eating less often and won't need her diaper changed nearly as frequently. Giving her her medicine will become second nature and you will start to feel normal again. Also, when you have more time, try to learn as much about CAH as possible. The better you understand the condition, the easier it is to deal with. At first it is so complicated you don't think you'll ever understand it. But it starts to make more sense the more you read about it. The first few months are hard but try to enjoy them as much as possible. You won't believe how quickly she will grow up! And in a few months a new mom will put a post on the board and you will have all kinds of advice for her! Good luck and God bless!!
