He's finally asleep. (exhale)
Jack was up all night, it seemed. Then he was up all morning and afternoon, and he was super mad. He seemed famished. I tried to feed him, over and over, if only to console him. We tried gas drops. I took him for a walk. I introduced him to plant life and flower petals. I rubbed the petals on his cheek to show him how soft purple petunias are. We sang. We danced. We rocked. And nothing seemed to work for long.
I tried to get the colic thought out of my head, and decided instead that maybe Jack is having a growth spurt. He is due for one, and he can't seem to nurse enough to be full.
But finally he is asleep and angelic. And I love him so much.
AND contrary to popular opinion, a Miller Lite and tube of Rolos are a perfect stress relieving snack.

That happens too...the "5 S's" work for us: swaddle, side lying, swoosh, shhhh, and suck (pacifier, feeding whichever). If you want more explanation, let me know. And yea, could be a growth spurt too. Glad you found a snack that works for you too :)
I'm all about those kind of snacks! Heck yeah!
