Mostly non-stop crying today is driving me crazy.
Where is the DADDY when you need one to take over for a while?!
New developments in the past days: He acts hungry, so I try to feed him, but he cries so much that he gets too upset to do anything. The only thing that will calm him is to swaddle tightly, hold in the pacifier, and at the same time jump up and down until he stops (10 min?), then do a switch-a-roo with the pacifier/bottle. Then he eats just fine, then falls asleep, only to repeat in +/- 90 minutes.
AAaaaaarrrggghhh.
Dear Elliot,
ReplyDeletePlease give your mama a break! She's been on duty with you 24/7 for too long, and she needs her sanity. Your daddy and your grandmas and grandpas would take a turn to tend you if they could, but all of them are too far away right now. We don't want your mama to reach the end of her wits. She needs a break!
Love,
Gramma Elaine
I wish I was there so I could help you out. It really does get better. HUGS!
