Andy's got a bit of the baby acne thing going on. I looked it up--Dr. Greene says it comes from hormones left over from mom. He also says, "It tends to occur at about the same age as the baby's peak gas production and fussiness....(This all coincides with parents' maximum sleep deprivation.)" I can relate.
Andy continues to be very gassy, and he also has a stuffy nose right now and is having trouble breathing. After a very bad night and another session with the snot-sucker this morning, he's finally resting more comfortably. I foresee naps for everyone this afternoon.
Helena,
ReplyDeleteHe is sooo beautiful! I love baby boys!
I'm assuming my baby boy was that small but I just don't remember it.

SO cute! Good luck with the naps. This too shall pass. Love, Mom
ReplyDeleteBwahahahahahhahaa, I can remember relating too.
ReplyDeleteYOu are braver than I am, I could NEVER snot suck, I had Dh do it.
What a beautiful baby boy!! I hate the snot sucker, i think Parley feels the same too!
ReplyDeleteI love the second picture. Does he look like Doug?
ReplyDeleteHazel's congestion is so deep that I can't get most of it with a snot-sucker and she just isn't breathing well. I called her doctor this morning, and they are sending over a machine (from the same company that brought over the bili-light) called a BBG, which the doctor said is short for "Baby Booger-Getter." I thought that was hilarious. It is supposed to work really well.
Awwww...thanks for the baby fix!!! I wish you all deep naps and 6-8 hour nights!
ReplyDeleteHope things start getting better!
ReplyDeleteHali l.o.v.e.s looking at the pictures of Andy. When ever she is throwing a fit all I have to do is show her your blog and she cheers right up!
