I am SO Tired :)
So I have new pictures of Mady but Blogger has decided it doesn't like them or something. I can only get the two I have posted to even show up.
Anyway Mady isn't sleeping much at night so I must look like the walking dead at this point. I would love for someone to watch her for a night while I slept but at the same time, if she cried I would be awake so there isn't much point to someone else doing it. How old should a baby be before you let them try to self settle??? I'm getting mis reviews on that one. Also she's going through another growth spurt so I know where some of the crankiness is coming from. Plus she has a yeast infection, poor baby. Although the doctor assures me they are common in babies, just as they are in mommies, however it makes me feel like a bad mom. She's eating 5 oz. every 2-3 hours now. I cannot believe how fast she is growing. I know if I can see a change in her, then there HAS to be. Last weigh in she was 6 pounds 5.5 oz. And that was a week and a half ago SO.... should be a big change by now.
I must get caught up on everyone else's blogs when she decides to sleep and get some commenting done. Also I'll be back later to try again to post all the pictures we took yesterday.
Love you all-
Ter

Beautiful picture of mother daughter bond-----even with tired eyes--- It takes awhile for sleeping all night to happen- every baby is different- in my opinion, self settling is not an option at this age---- as for the yeast infection, your doctor is right, it's so common--- Jennah is a fantastic mom, and her baby had thrush- white spots on mouth-- nasty looking, but common--- and my niece's baby had the same thing, so dont feel bad-- they're so susceptible and tender-- sounds like you're doing everything just right, as I knew you would-- just wish we could help you in a more tangible way, give you a good nights sleep-- but these days and nights, go by so fast---- thanks for the update, love you
Ter,
Don't worry about the yeast infection, the doctor is right it isn't uncommon, and it doesn't make you a bad mother..she will fall into a sleep pattern, but just rememebr if you hold her until she sleeps or rock her until she sleeps, everytime, it will make it difficult to get out of that pattern.
Love You Lots
Tam
