You know those forwards that ask you lots of personal questions and tell you to pass it on to your friends? Like, chocolate or vanilla? Hugs or kisses? What are you listening to right now?Well, this picture tells you what I'm listening to right now.
Apparently, this is the torture I've heard other parents speak of called "crying it out." It's pretty bad, I will admit. The doctor told us yesterday that yes, she can learn to eat more formula during the day if we don't feed her at night. And that no, she won't remember that I let her cry and hold it against me when she's 16.
The best (and by "best," I mean "worst") part of it all is that until the past couple of weeks, PhotoBaby has been sleeping like a champ. And then we added solid foods. Oh, she loves her solid foods, that PhotoBaby. Rice is yummy and carrots, well, they're the best thing since....ummm...rice. But now she thinks she's a big kid and only wants to eat solid foods. No more bottle for her.
Unfortunately, kid needs that bottle for another six months. This is evident by the way she's been waking up in the middle of the night and yelling until I feed her.
But the doctor says to stop doing that.
So here I am, at 4:42 a.m., listening to an angry, angry baby. Please, kids, don't try this at home.
