Life.

It's just how it is.

New beginning.

Aly was born with reflux. It isn’t a big deal but as a baby if we laid her flat on her back for more then a minute or two she would throw up and cry. So the only way she would sleep was if she was inclined. To make life easier (for me and her) we would put her to sleep in her bouncy chair with it laid back. Now that she is getting older we have been trying to transition her to her crib. For her beginning to sleep in her bed is like torture. She won’t sleep for more then 20-30 minutes in her bed. I spoke to her pediatrician about it and he said she’s fine, but it is really getting to me. When she wakes up she doesn’t just cry, she screams like something is hurting her. So I decided to start out small. I started by just putting her in her crib for naps so she would get use to it but still get a good nights sleep. Then a few nights ago she started crying during the night and screaming. She has been sleeping through the night since 2 months old but now she isn’t sleeping for more then an hour at a time. She’s six months old so it could be teething but they’re are no other signs of teeth. We also had to move her completely to her bed only starting last night because she has gotten big enough to pull herself up to sitting from the reclined position and even with the belt it no longer seems safe to let her sleep in her chair. I wish I knew what was bothering her and how to fix it.

Ugh…She is so exhausted. I am so exhausted.

New beginnings came be so hard.

P.s. I am sorry if I rambled but I am tired and my mind is distracted.
