Okay, who jinxed me on the whhhhiiiiiiinnnnnnning? :x
There's no rhyme or reason for it that I can tell. It's almost as if she's frustrated because she wants something but can't communicate it to us. Oh my, I hope it doesn't last long.
Branwen, Kelsey squirms and wiggles when I sit down with her for bedtime if it's too soon after the last bottle. It's not as bad anymore, and if she's exhuasted she won't do it all. I've figured out how to hold her, though, so that it doesn't bother her and she's doing much better. However, by putting her down so soon after the bottle, she is soaking her diaper and it's leaking on the crib sheet every morning. Dh says to feed her even earlier or at the same time but keep her up later. Sure, whatever, he's not the one home with an overtired baby.
Debra, I just can't get over Olivia's growth spurt. I wonder how long it will last.
Jaime-Kelsey is pretty good to reach for things and grab them, but her arms are still pretty stiff and she's flaps them like a bird. It's always funny when I carry her around because she sticks her arm out in case something may brush her hand. It's like she has an invisible cast making her arm stick out all the time. And she still gets startled sometimes. She has even started getting scared of things when I've never noticed this from her before. Used to the dog would bark, she's jump, then laugh. Now sometimes she pouts and I have to reassure.
Tarri, you should definitely try the sleep sack, and probably a crib bumper. I've found Kelsey with her head against the side of the crib, but the bumper kept it from hurting her. Also, how long are you waiting before you go into her? My SIL says that her lo still crys out in the night and she goes in and tends to him, but she doens't think he's really awake and never knows she's in there. Sorry, but I don't have much to offer but {{{Hugs}}}.
