Feeling all sorts of awful

My poor babe is definitely in size 3 now after some unfortunate struggle for a few days. Momma didn't realize that just because there aren't any red marks doesn't mean the diaper isn't squishing his tummy. He was soooo fussy, gassy, and inconsolable. I was thinking I ate something that didn't agree with him or something and my poor brain was boggled as to why my very happy baby was in pain. I switched a diaper size up on a whim because I had some already and I saw an immediate difference. Before he was holding his breath whenever he'd grab his toes, cried after I put on his diaper, and only seemed comfortable standing. Now all of that is gone and he's happily snuggling his Grammy downstairs and dozing off. Feeling a bit awful about it but I'm relieved that I realized it sooner than later.
