Well, last night we administered the first dose of Prevacid. He seemed ok for about an hour, then there was a big, big screaming fit. Uf. Similar thing this morning. Not sure if it means the medicine is making him feel ill in itself. Sigh.
I'll let you know if I ever get the hang of this mothering thing and am just running around exercising, doing errands, meeting up with gals from church, etc. Not. happening. yet.
Good news is, I love my baby! He's so sweet when he's not feeling bad. Poor guy.

I'm sorry. I wish I could be there to help.
ReplyDeleteSorry for the unsolicited advice, but we had a lot of luck with the Happiest Baby dvd--you can find the ideas online if you're interested, or I'm happy to share them with you.
Hang in there.
I second Becky on that DVD....lifesaver.
ReplyDeleteSadly, we're already using that book. (thanks for the gift, Melissa!) It's just still a little rough. But thanks. :) I'll take all the advice.
ReplyDeleteMost antacid meds are supposed to take several days to work. At least that's how it was with Nate, I couldn't just give him something and expect him to be better, it was something that would build up. Good luck. I sure know what it's like to have screamers.
