Tired, but not sleeping

Baby Emily has been fussy. Yes, we call it colic, but after experiencing this with our first, it is a little easier to handle. She pretty much fusses from 10 a.m. until 10 p.m. Getting little cat-naps in between the time she isn’t crying. She sleeps in her swing, and yes, I know all the controversy over swing sleeping, but I do keep an eye on her–I don’t leave her alone in it.

Also, the tummy sleeping seems to help. I know–controversy again. But I keep an eye on her, she is in her bassinette in the living room, after all. Besides, she only sleeps 15 minutes at a time before a gas pain wakes her up, so we’re pretty safe, I’d say.

This weekend, it seemed like everything was getting better. She actually slept during the day and went right down that night and slept for about 6 hours at a time. Then today, it was the same deal. Cry, cry, cry. It is only a season. And that season should be just about done, according to my calculations, so I think I will be ok.

This is one of the few times she actually sleeps.
