He’s Cute, Even When He Cries October 6, 2008
Posted by Emily in : Daily Life, Family, Little Man Dallin, Princess Hannah , 3commentsYou know it’s not good when your child’s pediatrician tells you every once in a while she sees a case of colic as severe as your baby’s. It makes you wonder what you did to deserve to be in the small minority of mothers (and fathers) that get to listen to an ear curling scream much more often than other parents.
I recently read “The Secret’s of the Baby Whisperer” (Thanks for the recommendation Lindsay!) and I really wish the author would come to my house and work with my kid. I really think something more is going on with him, and after several suggestions, I plan to take him to a chiropractor. If you have any recommendations for a good baby chiropractor in the Utah County area, let me know.
Dallin seems to have turned a very small corner. Instead of screaming the entire time he is awake, he screams half the time. The other half is spent smiling, and cooing. We are IN LOVE with his smile, and his cute talk. We have high hopes that during his fourth month he will make significant progress, and feel better. I’m DYING to start him on the Sleep Lady program (we started Hannah at four months and if sleeping was an Olympic sport for toddlers, she would take gold) but I know I can’t until he works through his medical issues. For now, we have created sleep crutches (we hold him, rock him, and I even nurse him to sleep) that will need to be undone when we start the sleep training process. But tonight I’m not going to worry about it because we are coping. We are trying to survive and keep a positive attitude all while having our baby scream in our ears.
He is such a handsome little guy. Even when he cries.
Look at those adorable eyes. I just want to kiss that crying face, even if it just makes him more mad.
