I miss my happy baby
This past week has been so hard. I don’t know if it’s just a result from leaving her with my in laws for the day on Sunday (she was crying before we even left, but my mother in law was sure they’d be fine. She also hasn’t been away from us for more than 3 hours since she was two months old). We thought we would only be gone four hours but it ended up being almost 6 hours by the time we got back to her (was helping my sister in law move to her new place which took an extra two hours to do because she had to buy a used ping pong table that wouldn’t fit down to her basement apartment). Addy wouldn’t take a bottle for my mil and wouldn’t nap for her either. Ever since that day, she has been super clingy, extremely fussy, and won’t sleep hardly at all at night. She used to be happy all the time, and cruising all over the place. She used to go to sleep between 8:30-9 and would sleep until 3:30-4:30 before waking up for a boob and then sleeping until 7:30-8. She would nap around 10:30am-11:30, 1ish-3ish and then 5-6:30, but we had a busy weekend and she has had a hard time getting back to that. We are going to try to see if not letting her nap after dinner and putting her to bed a little earlier will help, but we just don’t know what else to do.
