Another day!

Last night was HORRIBLE! Something was going on with Landry...I fed her at 11:30 then I went to pump...by the time I went to get in bed she was upset...she was crying and I thought that was weird...she rarely ever cries, unless she is hungry! so anyway, she kept crying, we tried everything. JR slept while I took the first shift, then after about 45min, I couldn't take it anymore. JR took over so I could try to sleep, he thawed out some milk and tried to give it to her...but as I said yesterday, she doesn't do well with a bottle. So JR tried using a different bottle...thinking maybe it was the type of nipple...that also didn't work. He put her in the swing...no go...he walked around with her, he rocked her. Then he decided it must be the milk...It was pumped back on Oct. 18 so it still had colostrum in it...so he decided that maybe Landry doesn't like the colostrum....so he poured it out and tried new milk. Finally that started to work...although I am skeptical of the TRUE reasoning! I think that after all the crying and the fact that 2 hours had gone by, she had worked up an appetite. I came in a few minutes later...It was my shift, and I fed her some "fresh" milk...and sure enough she was off to dream land. I still feel a little guilty because JR took an hour shift with her, and by the time I finished feeding her I was only up for 20 minutes!
It was only one night...so I dont want to jump to conclusions....such as colic...I think maybe she just didn't get full from the feeding and maybe her tummy was hurting a little. Anyway..JR got barely any sleep, so he will probably go to bed early tonight....and I- well I am not going to complain or gripe about it, because he deserves it! He has been so amazing. Sadly, we have been pretty lazy, and pretty tired lately so our house is starting to suffer...Mainly because Logan brings all his toys out@!!!! Hopefully, I can get some of cleaned up this evening and tomorrow! Nahhhh...It will probably have to wait until this weekend!

Happy 4 week Anniversary Landry!!
