Sleep!

Just when I thought our little girl was starting to sleep through the night for good she finds a way to tease her father and I by starting to wake up again 2-3 times a night! We are not really sure what is going on. My first guess is new food that is causing her tummy some issues. I am starting to watch exactly what enters her mouth, check labels and keep track of what could be causing her some pain. When she wakes up in the middle of the night she may drink an ounce or two but then she cries, throws her bottle and seems to be very upset. We have tried rubbing her back, giving her back the pacifier and letting her cry it out as well.

For this week we are just introducing one new finger food: Cheerios! We will watch her behavior, sleep patterns, and diapers for changes. If Cheerios work well with no added discomfort after 5 days we will introduce a new food. We will also be taking her back to the GI for some added advice and ideas. At some point we will figure this little girl out! Here is hoping she is sleeping through the night again!!
