Last night he slept maybe 4 hours and has had only a few hours of sleep since then. His gas is much worse and so I called the pediatrician this morning. We are going to try another formula (Enfamil Gentlease) tonight, since that soy one made him immediately worse. So needless to say, I (Wendy) have had minimal sleep. Any suggestions are welcome at this point. Mylicon only goes so far.
But here are a few pics over the past days. Enjoy!

HEY GIRL, YOU POOR THING! I KNOW HOW IT IS THOUGH. I THINK I CRIED EVERY DAY FOR LIKE THE FIRST 2 WEEKS, JUST BECAUSE ITS SUCH A HUGE CHANGE AND YOU ARE SO TIRED AND EMOTIONAL AND YOUR HORMONES ARE OUTTA WHACK. ANYWAY, SORRY HE HAS GAS! POOR BABY. ARE YOU BREASTFEEDING AT ALL OR DID THE DOC SAY TO JUST DO FORMULA? HOPE IT GETS BETTER SOON. WE NEED TO COME SEE YOU!
I know that a girfriend of mine used the Dr. brown's bottles and they helped. I also think the off brand of the gas drops work better and have a few other moms that feel the same way so maybe switch that. And lost of bycicle motion with the legs to help work out the gas. So sorry... he will get through it=) as far as sleep goes...kaje will be 2 in jan and I am still exhausted =)
hey wendy! i just found your blog... congrats on the birth of your new baby boy! i know ya'll must be enjoying every moment and always hoping for more sleep! with an almost 3 month old myself, i know how it is! a couple things i'd recommend... try gripe water by baby's bliss for the gas thing. it helped margaret anne a ton. you can get it at a pharmacy. also, i highly recommend the book "babywise" if you haven't read it. i have used it with all 3 of my kids and it works like a charm in getting them to sleep through the night! again, congrats and enjoy your precious gift from God!
