Acid Reflux

2 Nights ago Aedyn slept in his crib for the first night.
I was really nervous about it because he still sleeps in the bed with me and takes a bottle in the night.
But everyone has been telling me that I need to get him sleeping through the night, which I definately DO want!
And doctors say that a baby can start sleeping through the night around 3 months.
So I wanted to give him a chance to do that.
I put him in the crb & he slept for a while & then cried, so I gave him his passy which he is sooo attached to now, and he went back to sleep.
This went on probably 7 more times because he kept dropping the passy out everytime he fell asleep.
So eventually I just decided to let him cry & see if he would just fall back asleep. Well I stayed awake while he cried and he cried alot all night.
So in the morning we went to the Soddy flea market and while we were walking around he fell asleep in my arms.
So I just thought he was going to be sleepy all day because he didn't get a good night of sleep.
After the flea market he got in the worst mood and was fussy for the whole day. I assumed he was just upset about the night before and was cranky from no sleep.
Well as the day went on the crying got more and more and he was crying harder than I have ever heard ANY baby cry.
I took him to my moms so me and Jake could plant flower seeds.
And my mom mentioned that maybe he was constipated so we went the rest of the day thinking that.
Then when we got home he was still crying and Jake came up with the idea that it's his acid reflux & we looked it up online and he had all the symptoms of it.
Which Dr. Wiley had said something about him having it when he was around 2 weeks old and gave him some medicine for it.
But I haven't been giving it to him because it usually makes his eye swell up for some reason?
And he had never acted like he was ever in any pain or like he really had acid reflux until yesterday.
So I gave him the medicine & the internet said to keep his upper body elevated.
So that is how he has to sleep now and everything.
I feel so bad for him , but today he seems to be doing alot better.

The days are flying by

Aedyn's First Easter (4/4/10)

Aedyn at 2 1/2 months old


Aedyn rolled over for the first time at 1 month, 2 weeks, and 3 days.
Which is one day earlier than Rylee did for the first time.
I know, I am so crazy about the details, I just don't want to miss a thing.
Lately I have noticed how insane my picture taking has gotten. I'm sure one day I will have 100 albums full of pictures, I'm sure Rylee & Aedyn won't even care about.
But I just love pictures, because I know one day my babies are going to be grown and I am never going to get this time back.
So I try to do as many things for them and give them as many fun experiences as I can now.

For the past week or so Aedyn has started to really talk. He is so funny. Whenever I say his name really sweetly he gives the biggest smile almost every single time I do it.
That is what got him to talk, because when I get him to smile is usually when he's the most talkative.
I forgot how much I missed baby talk, it's been so long since Rylee did that.

He's getting to be a big man now :] He weighs in at 13 lbs. already. He has the biggest turkey neck I think I have ever seen on a baby. lol
He has had it since he was born but it has really gotten big lately. All I ever hear is how big he is.
I love spending my days with my babies :]
