Pulling My Hair Out...

Yesterday was not a fun "mommy day." Brady cried almost ALL day (gas). I spent most of the day sitting and holding him in an attempt to comfort him. I'd no sooner get him settled and laid down, and he'd start screaming again. The poor little guy didn't sleep for longer than 15 minutes before waking up crying again. Mylicon drops didn't do much, and neither did walking, rocking, singing, rubbing his tummy, or running the fan in the bathroom (which usually does the trick). He's not a colicky baby, but yesterday was a rough day for the poor lil guy. I felt so bad for him (and so helpless), but by the end of the day, my back, neck, and arms ached, my head was pounding, my nerves were shot, and I was totally exhausted! The upside is: both of us slept like corpses last night!!! Brady "clocked in" another 8 hours between feedings, and then slept until 10am after his 4:00 feeding.



In other news - we're excited about the Super Bowl this weekend. We're a huge football family (my hubby and 2 of our boys play), so Super Bowl Sunday is an exciting day for us. We're rooting for the Cardinals...it'd be nice to see the underdogs win!

Have a good weekend!

  1. Was last night any better? Has he stopped Crying so much? We rooted for the Cardinals too. I have to say I was VERY impressed by Steeler's player, Harrison for the record-play he made...amazing but I was still sad to see the Cardinals lose. They deserved it more.
