What an awful and wasted weekend we had!! DH hurt his neck on Thursday, and it didn't start getting better until last night. And he was extremely cranky because of this, and the fact that he couldn't sleep. Emily decided to have a screaming fit on Sat and Sunday nights, where we were up with her till 3am both nights!! We just couldn't settle her. And Nina kept throwing tantrums at DH (probably cause he wouldn't give her ANYTHING she asked him to!).
So finally last night, I told DH to stop arguing with Nina, and to stop saying 'no' to her, which did the trick. I also told him to stop whinging about his flippin neck and the fact that he can't sleep! And he quickly snapped out of his moodAnd we finally had a good night with Emily last night. phew! I even bought a tin of formula as I ended up with the shakes on Sunday night from feeding her so much. But we didn't have to use it last night, and hopefully we won't have to.
klee - that's great that joseph is growing nicely! Emily isnt' a noisy baby when she sleeps, but she is when she feeds. I get stares all the time when I'm feeding her cause of the noises she makes.
laranna - he'll definitely be fussing during feeds if he has a blocked nose. You can get some nose drops for infants which should help clear the nose. In the meantime, if he isn't draining your breasts, then it's probably best to try and express whenever you can to drain them, otherwise you'll end up with mastitis. I know you don't have time ATM, but whatever chance you've got, grab that opportunity and express. It's really important that the breasts get drained.
With the sling, how much did you pay for the Ergo?
