I haven't gotten any sleep yet. Dd has been very fussy- wanting to nurse, then crying and pulling away after a minute, then sucking on my shirt when I lay her on my chest. Rinse and repeat. I think she's gassy, but I'm not sure what to do. I read I shouldn't give her gripe water until 1 month.
She's sleeping now, and 'I'm scared to try to swaddle her and lay her down.
Bernadine have you true to bicycle her legs? It's usually pretty helpful to relieve gas pain. I start with a gentle tummy massage in a clockwise fashion, then pump each leg up, one after another, then both at once. Holding for a few seconds as I go. I usually sing to her as I do it so it's soothing, too.
First wake up. I did a dream feed and it did bugger all by the looks of it. I was hoping for a longer stretch.
The armed man resurfaced at like 10pm and the police told everyone to put their porch lights on to assist with the search. H wanted me to stay up but I couldn't. Apparently he (the suspect) then escaped in an suv.
One month? Whoops. We've been giving Mommys Bliss gripe water for hiccups. I think the bottle said can start at 2 weeks. I don't know that it has done anything for gas but it def helps for hiccups. We did start the Gerber Soothe probiotics and I think those are helping our fussy evenings be not so bad!
First wake up here/ she was tired last night. Down by 10, slept till 1 for her first feeding. I'm hoping she is out till 4 or 5 this next time.
Bad storm with strong winds and thunder have gotten the dog all riled up. I can't get comfortable again to fall asleep. My body is just getting ready for when baby boy is actually here in the next two weeks!
DD2 woke around 330. She was wide awake after feeding, which was weird. Asleep now and I'm going to attempt to put her back in the crib.
I have to pee so badly but our bathroom is downstairs and I keep hearing weird house creaking noises. My anxiety gets so high when this happens even though I know it's from the heat and humidity. Also no robber is tip-toeing through the house in the dark. He would have stepped on a Lego by now, lol. Yet still I'm terrified.
DD was up at 4a which is a good stretch. She woke up a little bit ago congested and annoyed. I had to saline/nosefrida her which means I'm up for the day. I have so much to do today but maybe I can sneak in a little nap.
How do I help DD move her 4am cluster feed to daylight hours? She's been nursing since 3:30!
I just got her back down. At least now she'll probably sleep a good 4 hour stretch. Just bed to break her of being awake from 3:30 to 6:15 am every day!

We gave gas drops earlier than a month instead of gripe water
