A screaming baby

Last night at group was a little stressful. Luke screamed for well over an hour, and the only thing that would calm him was holding him upright, walking around while bouncing him, and letting him chew on my hand. Marty and I are both convinced the screaming was a combination of gas pain and teething pain. The nurse practitioner said that babies gums hurt long before the teeth come through, and all that drooling is a sure sign of teething.

He was still a little fussy once we got home, but he nursed and was in bed by 10:00 pm, then slept until 6:30. After nursing for 45 minutes, we both got to sleep for 2 more hours, thank God!

Only a little fussiness, some drooling and a lot of laughing today. Much better!
