Six Weeks!

Molly turned 6 weeks old on Monday! Everyone has their "story" of when a baby starts sleeping through the night, or when the fussiness begins to subside etc. Six weeks is one that gets mentioned alot.

Miss Molly's time isn't six weeks. She sleeps one 4-5 hour stretch sometime between 11 and 5 most nights now which is nice. But she still struggles with alot of gas and upset tummy and has a pretty fussy time every night. We've put her back on Zantac for reflux and are hoping that might help how upset she gets when being burped. It had seemed that she really began eating better when we stopped the Zantac and I'm noticing that she is back to taking longer to get through a meal now that we are back on it. I haven't found anything online that suggests that is a side effect of Zantac...but it does seem a correlation.

There was a sitcom I used to enjoy called "NewsRadio". One of my favorite lines from the show was when someone was described as "an enigma, wrapped in a mystery, covered in secret sauce".

I've decided thats what babies are- Enigmas, wrapped in mystery, covered in secret sauce-sometimes its so hard to figure out whats going on. They can only eat, cry and poop! Try communicating with someone tomorrow using only those avenues-see how far you get! ha

I heard lots of nice things after Steve posted the last entry on what an awesome guy I am married to. He is a great husband and the best dad a child could have. Boy does he love this little girl! Since a picture sometimes speaks a thousand words I thought I'd post this picture of he and Molly McButter!
