Not much time for Bloggin'

My poor boy has been super uncomfortable these past few days.  He seems to have a gas issue (my guess is that it's hereditary).  He has always been a pooper and a burper but it seems he has been having belly trouble.  He hasn't been sleeping well and wants to nurse 24/7.  He will fall asleep while nursing but wake 15-20 minutes after I put him back to bed.  This just goes on over and over and over.  We were up all night last night from 11pm-5am.  He was just as uncomfortable today.  We had given him a half dose of Gripe Water over the weekend but he vomited it up.  Thankfully he rarely spits up or I would really be freaking out that he had some type of digestive issue going on.  I gave up primary dairy and chocolate for a few days but that didn't help him.  I will stay off chocolate but I live for cheese.

Today he has been not himself.  He slept most of the morning but woke every 15-20 minutes crying.  He was able to sleep this afternoon for almost an hour and a half so that was wonderful.  I haven't done ANYTHING today except finish up the Thank You Cards (finally!!!).  Thank goodness for those meals I made up a froze a few month ago.  I gave him a 1/4 dose of Gripe Water tonight then I gave him another 1/4 dose a half hour later.  Thankfully he was able to keep both doses down.  I just nursed him and he fell alseep and he is now in bed.  I pray pray pray that he is able to sleep and then go back to sleep after his next feeding.  I will try to catch up on blogs and everything else when I can.

  1. Poor boy! Sorry he isn't feeling well! Have you tried infant gas drops? Our boy is pretty gassy as well, maybe it's just a boy thing?!
