Trying Not To Get My Hopes Up...

...but things have been going pretty well the last few days. Since switching to the Dr Brown's bottles, we generally only have one fussy feeding a day now, and that's in the evening. This leads me to believe her problem is more likely colic than reflux. The rest of the time, she happily chows down on her formula (we're not using cereal anymore). She's also taken to having 6 or 7 feedings a day (instead of the 14 a day she required just 6 weeks ago) with some regularity as to the times. The last two nights have been amazing! Friday night, she went down at about 11PM and didn't wake up for her next feeding until 4:45AM! Then she napped for another 3.5 hours after that one! Last night, she went down at about 9:30/10PM. I was so sure she'd be up around 1AM at the lastest, since that's the earliest she's gone down for the night. Instead, she didn't wake up until 5AM! And she was happy as a clam both mornings when I went to get her...no screaming, just contentedly waiting in her crib for me to come get her and take care of her needs. Naps continue to be a problem. She wants to stay awake all day now. But at least I'm getting sleep at night.

Only 3 weeks of maternity leave left...
