this will probably be very short

June 16, 2009

Because Mommy's had a very long day.

Lil Miss woke up at four am. Screamed at Mommy for about three and a half hours total (she did give me short breaks every once in awhile). Nothing I did helped. If I put her down, it just got worse. She wasn't wet, she wasn't hungry, she wasn't sleepy, she wasn't hot. I didn't know what was wrong.

I had to wake Jimmy up at eight thirty because I had to leave for work by nine and hadn't even begun to get ready because she wouldn't let me.

As soon as I handed her to him she stopped screaming and was just fussy. Then she stopped all together before I left.

I worked and then went to my interview. Jimmy kept Lil Miss here. He called a few times because he started feeling sick. He's stressed himself out again.

I got home. He said she'd been a little fussy, but over all, she'd been good. Jimmy was sick. So I took the baby. It was three fifty pm.

She proceeded to scream at me again for two and a half hours straight. She finally cried herself out and fell asleep on my shoulder at about seven or so. She's been out pretty much ever since except for me waking her up to put her in her jammies and feed her.

Now she's sleeping her her nursery and Jimmy's sleeping in our room. Mommy gets to sleep on the couch, so I can hear either of them when / if they need me, but this way I won't keep Jimmy up, Jimmy won't wake her and she won't wake him.

Basically? Mommy had a rough day with Lil Miss. It makes me feel like a horrible Mommy when she cries like that because I know something's wrong but I don't know what and I can't fix it. She's not running a fever. She's not sick. She's just crying.

And it breaks my heart.

Finally crashed out on Mommy's shoulder.
