This little man is getting the best of me. Still not STTN (sleeping through the night) by any stretch of the imagination. 4 hours in a row seems to be a maximum. Still not taking solids for the most part. He will let me put them in his mouth but just rolls them around and eventually pushes them out with his tongue. I think he swallows very little. I love him.......but how I wish I could read his little brain!!
Game plan:
1. Try oatmeal cereal mixed with fruit and rice cereal mixed with veggies to entice our texture snob to eat.
2. Try to encourage self-soothing at bedtime in his crib rather than wait until he is asleep to move him there.
3. Pray David doesn't shoot me when Joshua cries at night & I have to let the tears flow for a bit.
4. Get an IV hook-up for coffee.
5. Get an IV drip of margaritas instead.
6. Scrap all my plans & just follow Joshua's lead.
We'll see how it goes!

You know, Sammy was having the same issues about 2 months ago (not sleeping at night, not doing well with solids) and we edventually figured out that he had a bad ear infection! After 2 different types of antibiotics he is doing SOOOOO much better!!! He now consistantly sleeps through the night and LOVES his food now!! Have his ears been checked lately?
