Katie's 2008 resolution

We've decided that Katie's 2008 resolution is to stop fussing. That includes random tantrums, glass shattering screams and her general bad moods.

In all seriousness, we're going to bring it up to her doctor next week. Yes, babies cry but there is definitely some underlying issue. We are with her constantly but she acts like we are the most neglectful parents and cries at the drop of a hat. If she isn't sleeping, there is a 90% chance she's screaming. Hopefully we can figure something out soon or her loving parents are going to be sent to the nut house. I recently saw a show that interviews moms and 3 of the 5 moms said they had to go to therapy/counseling after their kids were born. Now I see why!

Are you still breast feeding? If not, it could be the formula. Since cows milk protiens can be pretty harsh on a baby's system, you may need to switch. One of my girlfriends ended up getting prescription formula for her little girl after she switched from boob to formula and the baby ended up with colic. Lola can get fussy too, but I just throw her in the bjorn and within a few minutes of doing housework with her strapped in she's calm.

She's on formula...I've heard sometimes it takes a few tries to find a "good" one for them. I just don't know how you are supposed to know what formula to try (especially since it is not cheap). I'll see what the doctor says next week!

I think "Magic" should just stay home with her M-F and it would take care of everything. Katie misses "Magic" every day, that is the problem :)
