Well Ella is giving her mommy a hard time! She is a very good baby. She still hardly cries...only when she's starving or has a dirty diaper. But she's definitely got her days and nights mixed up. She was awake from 2 am to 7 am last night. She wasn't bad, wasn't crying, she was just awake. It was a little frustrating for me because I was so tired but I stayed perfectly calm and just tried to soothe her. She wanted to eat about every hour and a half whereas during the day she will eat every 3 or 4 hours. My milk came in yesterday evening so I think she is just adjusting to that.
I gave her a sponge bath today and she HATED it! It was so hard for me to hear her scream like that. I felt like a mean mommy :(
Normally when she cries it's just one little wail, maybe 2 and as long as you give her what she needs, she's fine. But during her bath as well as when we put her in her carseat, she just cried and cried! Poor baby!
She loves to look at Tyler and I! Last night she would fuss and fuss until I turned the lamp on and peeked in at her. She would just stare at me, perfectly content. She was doing this with Tyler this evening. So cute!
She went to the doctor today for a little check up and she's at 7 pounds, 6 ounces, no signs of jaundice, very healthy little girl! Her daddy is so in love with her! He treats her like a little porcelain doll...it's precious. He doesn't want her to ever be even slightly uncomfortable.
We are so lucky to have her!
