New Record for Longest week! |
| This week has been the best week ever for Little Carter. He is still very colicky but we are starting to notice that his days and nights are starting to switch. He is starting to have a little more awake time during the days and sleeping more during the nights. This is tough for Stacy who is along during the day to deal with all the fussiness herself. She had used the days to nap here and there to save her strength, but she quickly adapts and Brad makes it home for lunch now and then, so we are able to make it work. After some adjustment, it is far better to be on a somewhat normal schedule. We are still up until 1 or 1:30AM, instead of 6 or 7AM, but he will sleep until 7, 8 or sometimes 9, with only an hour for feeding once or twice during the night. It doesn't sound great, but trust me, we will take it! |

AUG 25 |
The Horror, the Horror, if there was anything that could make this worse, Brad turns 30!!! Various family members and friends were around most of the day, and Carter actually did pretty well. He also had a pretty good night. It must have been his birthday present to his daddy. |
Monday
AUG 26 |
Despite the fact that he is very fussy off and on, he has extended periods of sleep during the day and night. We were very happy that his nights and days fixed themselves, and now he appears to be sleeping longer. Now if we can just get rid of the screaming! He even loads up, some nights, on feedings just before bed time. |

Had to put Carter down over and over again before he would go down. fussy, fussy, fussy. |
Wednesday
AUG 28 |
Carter went to bed 1AM and slept until 7:30 --- 6 1/2 hours of sleep. We couldn't believe it. He paid us back by crying most of the day. Carter was mildly soothed by his bath at the end of the day, |
