I tried to write yesterday, but got distracted by the baby needing changing, so I never posted. She spent most of yesterday crying again. I think I’m going to try something called colic calm. She’s sleeping at my side right now. So far it’s been a quiet day, but the older girls aren’t home yet, over-stimulting her. I’m on the laptop, so I’m kind of resting on the couch.
Okay, this entry is going really slow as well. I keep getting interrupted from it, by various things, phone calls, visits, the kids… her crying, needing changing, trying to feed Shabree and I, etc. I WILL get it posted. Nancy has her now, trying various things to get her to stop crying. I’m SURE she is colicky. Poor baby. I think Nancy MIGHT have her somewhat calmed down, but it may or may not last, we’ll see.
We have a dr’s appt tomorrow, I doubt the dr will be able to tell me anything. I took her into Kaiser on Saturday, and the dr there couldn’t tell me anything… he couldn’t find anything wrong with her. Not physically, anyway. And I think now she’s developing the cold Jerry had. She’s sneezed twice tonight, NOT a good sign, IMO. I have been trying to take vitamin C in hopes she and I would not get sick. It will NOT be fun if she gets sick already. I’ll REALLY be at my wit’s end. Sigh.
I’m not sure if I mentioned, but my parents headed out for Reno on Sunday, and are probably headed home today. I’m partially missing them, and partially not. I feel like I have my home back, but I really DO need the help in moving to the new house. We should be signing docs tomorrow, so yay for that! But I’m not sure how I’m supposed to get everything packed and moved…. more sighs. Not that we have a clue as to what we’re doing with THIS house, that I’m aware of, so I suppose we have TIME to move… heck, I don’t know. I need to be able to get into my scrap stuff, because I have a bunch of swaps due, though I’m not sure when I’m going to find time to do them… well, I suppose I’ll just have to get Sammi to sleep, then sneak off to work on them. I just need to DO it is all. I’ve had too much of a break, I need to quit participating in swaps, and just take a break. I’ve enjoyed not having any swaps hanging over my head.
Well, I guess I will post, and see what’s happening with Jerry. I ate a couple of hours ago, but I’m feeling hungry again… he usually doesn’t like to be here when Brian and Nancy are here.
Well, better post so I don’t forget. Again. Nancy got Sammi to sleep… hopefully it lasts.
Who are Brian and Nancy and why doesn’t Jerry like to be there if they are? I hope you find something that soothes Sammi. Have you tried a baby swing and different kinds of music? That sometimes helped Kacie.
