What made it harder was Jeeej's phone call telling me he will be a couple of hours late at work, which meant continuous suffering for me...
Mariyah woke up really early yesterday having some gas in her stomach, and then took a nap for less than 2 hours! Then she stayed awake from 12 pm until 10:30 pm!! This is not common for babies her age!
Nothing was calming her down except for eating! I mean nothing! I made sure I clean her every now and then, I sang for her, I played with her, I walked her, I fed her and fed her and if anybody saw her eating would have thought she was starving, but she was not...actually she kept spitting every once in a while which means she was full!
When Jeeej came, he calmed her down by rocking her on the chair, and she slept after crying her heart out! Then she woke up after 30 min., crying! I was starting to lose it...She broke my heart, I started crying! Nothing was working!
Then, sometime around 10 pm, Jeeej decided that we have the power over her, she can't beat us! lol...
He wrapped her tightly -she HATES it, so we never do it!- and walked her, then on the rocking chair...she was crying SO LOUD all the time...and then she slept...at 10:30 pm!!!
He made me sleep at the same time...and the best part was waking up after almost 8 hours of continuous sleeping!
I haven't had this luxury -8 hours of sleep- since last February!!
From now on, WRAPPING IS THE BEST AND WE HAVE THE POWER!
From now on, WRAPPING IS THE BEST AND WE HAVE THE POWER!
For the record...I was brave enough today to cut her nails! For the 1st time :p
Jeeej did it the 1st time, just like changing her and cleaning her and bathing her and everything else:p
