Perspective is an amazing thing! Paisley was awake last night from 1 a.m. until about 6 a.m. NOTHING comforted her. Well, nursing did but she isn't wanting food so thing she just pukes it all up. Needless to say we were at our wits end but all I could think was, "this too shall pass". And pass it will, probably quickly. I refuse to wish away these moments with her because I did that a lot with Griffin when I was too tired. I want to enjoy her even when she's the little devil child ;)
anyhow, relaxing today...off to rest.

About Me
- Allison
- Hello all...I am a 33 y.o. chiropractor/mom/wife living in Lakewood, OH with my husband Lee , 6+ y.o. Griffin, 3+ y.o Paisley, one on the way, and our dog Mazzy. Most moments these days I feel like I have it all but then there are those mommy moments and I want to cry. On this blog I'd like to share it all...hope you find it somewhat interesting.

are you getting enough protein in your diet? How are your iron levels? just wondering if maybe some dietary stuff might be upsetting her. I really blame all those little-but-carbohydrate foods I was eating while traveling in August for Del's ongoing digestive issues (he's still spitting up several times a day) - I really think it caused foremilk/hindmilk imbalance which then triggered reflux issues that we're still working out (having a few members of the family who think babies "need" to cry to work their lungs doesn't help, if he cries he gets obvious reflux symptoms and usually pukes quite a lot as soon as he calms down if his stomach wasn't empty).
If you need meals let me know. We're going to be making more turkey soup I think. Are you going dairy-free (or reduced dairy) with her since G had those issues? I've got lots of almonds too... my MIL makes great almond cookies but they have a lot of butter in them so if you're going dairy-free they're not a good idea for you.
Try some soothing tea for yourself, it'll go through your milk to her too. I have Mango Chamomile, Tension Tamer, and that Nighty Night stuff I think it was Mary recommended. Happy to drop some off for you so you don't have to go get some or send Lee for it - maximize that together time, guys :)
when she's the little devil child ;)
Remember that. (wink) oh those first few days are so tough. I remember now.
good advice from your nursing cohorts. I saw some almonds above the microwave in that snack basket- I took my container home. sorry.bake them on the cookie sheet to roast. Love the new picture! she changes daily.
