So for those of you who don't know..... Piper is a little fussy. OK sometimes ALOT fussy! So we have determined she has colic, or gas, or reflux.....who knows. Anyways we are trying to find ways to help her & survive.
These are catnip & fennel drops. I found out about them through a mom at my MOPS table. They have helped alot with the acid reflux. She isn't spitting up anymore and doesn't seem to have the painful "silent reflux"
This is mylicon- gas drops. They seem to help with the gas and help get the yucky taste of the catnip and fennel drops out of her mouth.
This is a margarita.... it seems to have helped ME the most! Katie took me out for a much needed break and I had a few of these..... went and had a pedicure and just spent time without kiddos for awhile. Thanks so much to my hubby for letting me go and keeping the kiddos... and sending me text updates :) Thanks to Katie who took me out... and got me home in one piece. It was great to have some "Mommy Time" and regroup!!!!!!

HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! I love the third thing.. OHHHH how I can't wait.. margaritas and a pedicure. I'm soooo jealous!
Amen sister!! You are hilarious :) Carter had the silent reflux thing and was not content for months. They ended up putting him on zantac at 4 weeks and just let him outgrow the dose. It only takes them like a month to do that at their crazy growth rates. He cried and fussed most of the day, never took a pacifier, would only nap in a swing till 6 months, and wailed like he was being stabbed whenever in the car seat. He made me think I was psychotic sometimes. My motto has always been, whatever works the first 6 months.
I'm so happy you got a break and some girl time! That is clearly the best medicine :) If you ever want a break or time with piper, we'd love to watch her. We're always home and healthy :)
Shelby, we almost called and invited you, and then remembered you were preggo and thought of how mean it would be to ask you to come sit and watch! :) Bethany, I'm happy to take you out any time!
you are too funny Bethany! So glad you got some "regrouping" time - sounds AWESOME :) ha ha
....hope Piper continues to get better :)
Girl, I understand! Russell was so tough for the first 2-3 months - he literally cried all the time! Just remember, it will get better eventually...and the margaritas never hurt :)
