On another note...in this pic to the left, I'm sporting the Munchkin baby sling. Baby slings (IMO) are one of the best inventions EVER (for lazy people like me). It lets me carry the baby without actually using both hands. It leaves my hands free to play on my iPad. Yes, that's my iPad in the pic...I was recording the baby's last feeding, lol. The app you see there is called "Baby Geek" and I love it. I use it to record all of TnT's pees, poops, feedings, and sleep. That way I can tell people that he's not eating well, or pooping as much as I'd like, etc. =P LOL And yes, I DO do that...
So we kinda figured out what all the crying was about...it seems like our poor baby had some pretty bad gas, which was upsetting his tummy. He was grunting all the time, and crying more and more every day. So I took TnT to the doctor and he recommended that we change his formula (apparently gripe water wasn't strong enough!). So now we have him on the Similac Soy Sensitive formula...although I'm not a fan of the smell. I definitely like the smell of the regular formula better. Perhaps our poor baby is lactose intolerant? I suppose we'll have to wait and see. We're only using the soy formula till it runs out...then we're switching to Enfamil AR (which is for gassiness and sensitive tummies too). Just following the dr's orders! =) I'm just happy our baby is not grunting all the time, and seems to be in a better mood. He still cries sometimes, but it could be because we haven't completely weaned off the original formula (you can't just switch cold turkey!). I'll keep you guys updated on how he does after he's just on the soy formula.
Well, it's 2am, and I really should be sleeping instead of typing (but really, I want to enjoy my night off!). I'll try to be back soon!
Till next time!
