Ah-Freaking-Ha!
ACID REFLUX! BASTARD!
Thank goodness I live in an age where we have so much information about babies.
It would seem that my perfect angel has acid reflux, this would explain a ton of things.
Not being able to sleep on her back, not being able to burp, and waking up screaming all of a sudden, among other things.
It's no wonder I cracked like Humpty Dumpty and Postpartum hit me like a brick wall.
I feel so much relief having found out what is wrong with her. Now I can start to try new things that will help her, because Lord knows mommy knows her some acid reflux thank you third trimester.Hopefully as I find things that work I will find more time to do things other than feed, change, bathe and soothe a crabby baby that doesn't care to sleep anywhere other than on mommy.
It's not that I don't like to hold my child, it's wonderful. It's that I just got done carrying her for 40 weeks! This is starting to feel like pregnancy all over again having a baby (who gets heavier daily) attached to the front of me constantly.
So far we are happy to sleep in our swing or bouncy chair, tonight I am going to try to elevate one end of her mattress and see if she likes that.
May the force be with me.
I know I said no more pictures but this one is too cute to resist.
