Thanks guys. I get so caught up in the moment of crying that I forget all the good things. Last night, he tried to talk to mum.
But there is still blood in his poo on & off. Not like if he was constipated, but rather in mucus, so it's coming from his gut lining. I'm booking an appointment with the doctor. It might have something to do with the screaming.
He lays on his change table just fine, but if you put him in his cot, he cries. As long as he's distracted with stuff to look at, he appears fine. If he's bored with what he's looking at - cries. I think part of it could be that I have no idea how to relate to such a little thing. I sing to him & read him books, and dibble utter crap to him, but it feels ... I dunno... odd. I think because when he's not crying, he's staring blankly at the world, I find that really hard to read. Oh! what I would give for a smile!!
Essentially - I think it comes down to my mantra: "You are over-thinking the situation"
I don't know what I'd do without you guys to vent to. All of you a treasures to me. I'd give up all the gold I've mined in my short career to stay friends with all of you. Xx
Entreat - you are so lovely to write such nice things Right back at you babe. Hopefully the mucous isn't anything serious. My SIL's baby had the same thing and my brother said she was going to get it looked into and I never heard anything else so in their case I don't think it was anything harmful. So now you know when things are going a bit all over the place you need to think to yourself "Stop over-thinking!" which is funny in itself as you need to think about thinking that. Hee hee. Ikwym though - I feel a bit the same way with X, when I am hanging out with her and she is just looking at me expectantly I often wonder what I am supposed to do to keep her entertained. Basically she does these things - sits in our arms or on us and we talk to her, sits in our arms or on us and looks at the lights at nighttime, goes in her swing, lies on her floor mat or looks at books. And that's the extent of her fun time. What does everyone else do?
