ZZZZzzzzz....

Sleepy Boy
Happy Boy!!!
Playing with Daddy

G & his Godmommy Kelli

Guess who is FINALLY sleeping??? Daddy came home and Gavin decided to make me look like a crazy lady complaining about my colicky baby who is being a perfect angel now!
It seems like the formula change has helped with G's fussiness BUT I'm also giving him gripe water occasionally which I give 75% credit to.
The hubby still has some getting used to Gavin's new routines and likes & dislikes, but it's so great/funny to watch him try to figure it out. He was gone for a week & a half & so much changed in that time. Including how he liked to sleep.

OK, I am completely aware that you are NOT supposed to put babies on their tummy. But since Gavin will fight his sleep and has already rolled over b/c his tummy hurts him so much, I thought I'd give it a shot. And Wa-La!! It worked. Yes, I keep a crazy close eye on him and check him like- every 5 min to make sure he is breathing! But, this way of sleeping has done wonders for him!
I've also attempted his bassinet in my room again (b/c just b/c they don't like it once, doesn't mean it won't work the 2nd time) & so far so good. However, he scoots forward to where his head touches the side. I think his nickname may be scooter :) I can tell he's gonna be an early crawler!

Yay for sleep! So glad you found a way that works and as long as you're keeping a good eye on him, you've got to do what works and trust your mommy instinct!

Hope you have a wonderful weekend, especially now that your hubby's hom to help! :)
