Don't Wake a Sleeping Baby

Yesterday was August 14th, Skylar's original due date! I was so sure that she would be born on or after that date. But she surprised us, and today she's 18 days old.

Our visit to the Pediatrician Friday went well. Skylar gained weight, 6lbs 11oz. Almost to birth weight. The feeding plan is going well. The bad news is that white stuff all over the inside of her mouth is "Thrush" a yeast infection. We got a prescription for Deflucon to treat it, and now it's looking so much better.

The colic continues, poor Skylar, poor us. It happens at night, so my strategy was to try and sleep a little during the day. Mom came today, and I was able to lay down and rest, but not sleep. Too many thoughts racing through my mind. I did get 3 solid hours of sleep this morning from 7-10.

Baby crying now, gotta run...!
