Wow - if only Caitlyn would settle into a nice routine like that!! She normally fights sleep until 8 then is awake at either 10 or 11 and then about every 2-3 hours she wakes again. Last night was down at 815, up at 1045, down at 1130 up at 130, down at 215 up at 430 down at 530 up at 6 and I just got her back to sleep now. Am thinking I might have to keep her awake more during the day so that we can both get some sleep at night! I am still working out her different cries but have got the hunger one down pat.
Has anyone who is bottle feeding changed their formula? I worry that she is awake so much cause she is hungry all the time - just about every time she wakes she is hungry - she does that clown mouth that someone else mentioned. And in the morning - like just now - she has a huge spit up. My mum says its not vomit cause it doesnt smell acidic and it really doesnt seem to bother her (just need to change her). I worry that its her formula. Someone told me not to change it unless I speak to a Doctor first. I will be going to see the CHN in the next day or so (she is only there a few days a week and DH has the car today!) so maybe I will speak to her before I change it. I also have to get Caitlyn weighed - she hasnt been weighed since her 9 day check up. The chemist here doubles as a furniture store and doesnt have any baby scales - I LOVE THIS PLACE!!!
Anyway - she is asleep now so time for a shower - covered in spit up right now!
