I posted too soon....

So, although yesterday was a really good day and I thought Ryland was feeling a lot better, last night proved to be extremely different! She went to sleep fine and we didn't hear a peep from her until 1am. And little did we know how our night would not be the same after that little peep. We tried EVERYTHING! We feed her, rocked her, changed her diaper, walked around the house, let her cry it out, patted her back while she lay in her crib with her eyes wide open, brought her to bed with us, feed her again, let her cry it out again, gave her some Tylenol, took a long drive around the lake, rocked her some more, and finally at 4:45am she fell back to sleep! Rough night. But this morning at about 10am she woke up just fine and happy, like nothing happened last night but maybe a few bad dreams!

Next time we won't wait until 1am to go to bed, that way if this happens again we will have at least a few hours of sleep before having to be awake for 4 hours in the middle of the night!

Oh boo! Thankfully there are not many of those nights! Sick babies are very unpredictable--and frustrating because they just can't tell you what's wrong :( Poor little angel! Well, I hope you have a great day today and that she takes a nice long nap so you can take one, too!
