Will’s Doctor’s Appointment

Saturday, July 28th, 2007

So I bitched about Madison’s behavior and forgot to update you on what happened.

Will is up to 10 lbs 3 oz. Not to shabby (remember he was only 6 lbs 12 oz when he was born). I guess he can go 5 days without pooping, so we just wait. He still hasn’t pooped today. Since he is gaining weight, they aren’t doing anything about the acid reflux. We just need to keep doing what we are doing.

I have to bring him in August 6th for his 2 month check up, and they will reevaluate them our course of action.

Calgone take me away

Isn’t that how that commercial use to go? I just had an incredibly crappy day yesterday.

First, I tweaked my back around 4 in the morning getting Will out of his crib. It still hurts.

Next, I had to call the doctor for Will. Why? He hasn’t pooped since Wednesday about 5 pm. He went from pooping every single diaper to nothing. Bill was freaking out about it. Also, his puking has picked up again. He has baby reflux, and it is hard to tell what is coming up from that and what is spit up and if he is sick. Plus, he is crabby in the afternoon.

Next, Bill worked late. Again. I can’t get anything done until he gets home. When he doesn’t get home till after 7, that means I really don’t anything done.

Next, my street is all tore up.

Next, I take Will to the doctor and this was the end of my patience. Madison was the biggest snot there. The doctor was even telling her to behave. That’s how bad she was.

I seriously just wanted to pack my Samsonite luggage and get away. Far, far away.

Today, has been a slightly better day. Bill and Madison are gone till Michigan till Monday, so it is just Will and me. I am hoping he sleeps and doesn’t give me too hard of a time.

What made the tower lean?

I saw this over at The King Speaks and thought it was hilarious.  If anyone asks me to explain it to them, I will slap you.  LOL

Birthday Party

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

Madison is invited to her first birthday party tomorrow.  It is for the twin girls who live across the street from me.  They are turning 5.  How do I know if I am suppose to stay for this party or if I am suppose to go home for the 2 hours it is happening?

Also, I think my gift may be a little cheesy.  I got the girls Cabbage Patch Kids twins.  They each got their own set of twins.  Is that cool or cheesy?

Colic

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

How do you tell if your child has colic?  In doing research, I found that it isn’t considered colic if they cry less than 3 hours straight for more than 3 days a week.  However, Will does have these symptoms:  draws his legs to his belly, becomes red in the face, passes gas a lot, and has difficulty staying asleep.  The only way he sleeps for any amount of time is if we let him sleep on us.  However, he does not cry for 3 hours a night straight.  We are more at the hour mark.

Any thoughts?
