Well Conner started getting uneasy and cranky at around 5pm. I had hubby take care of him from 5-6pm so I could make dinner. My mom came and got the older boys lastnight for a slumber party and church today. I gave Conner a bath at 7pm, and he did okay...I was more nervous lol. Then we gave him a bottle...and tried to entertain him...but all he did was cry this horrible blood curdling cry. He cried so hard his umbilical stump came out and he bled really bad. I put vaseline on it like I was told and the bleeding stopped. My poor baby cried for almosy 5 hours straight...he was so upset he was sweating and couldnt catch his breath. SO.....I broke down and gave him the Nutramigen Colic formula. And then rubbed lavender baby lotion all over him. And he fell asleep. He slept from 10pm to 2am, woke up, had a diaper change, fed him the nutramigen, and he went back to sleep. He then woke up at 6am, and did the same routine...diaper and bottle, and he has been asleep with daddy ever since.
I really hope that this formula continues to work for him, he seems so much happier, and can actually be awake and be a happy baby instead of being in pain.
Im still however a bit concearned about his pee pee....so I made an appointment on monday. He has some kind of green goop on it.....but it isn't oozing and he isn't running a fever, so we will see. I cleaned it with warm water and a cotton ball lastnight in his bath, and added the A&D ointment, and it looks a little bit better, but im still worried.
His Jaundice is also almost all gone! I can't believe my little man is almost a week old already. I wish they stayed this little for a while longer than they do lol.
