One of few, and not one of many!
What a night we had Monday night (March 28th). We experienced the worst night by far with P. we put him to bed at 7:30pm like we usually do and at 9:30pm he woke up screaming. From that time on he screamed all night long. My heart just broke for him because I had no idea what was wrong....it seemed that we tried it all. Changed him, feed him, rocked him, walked around, Tylenol, everything.....he would fall asleep for maybe 30min on me, and then would be back up screaming, and that’s just not my kid, he doesn’t cry (like that anyways)! I felt so sorry for him...so by 6:00am, I woke up Ryan, who had been up with me most of the night, but maybe got 2 hours of sleep, and told him we have to call someone, something is wrong! I called the doc office and talked to the nurse on call and told her what was going on, and she said we need to call back at 8:30am to make an appointment to have his ears looked at. So we get an appointment at 9:30am and sure enough, double ear infection! The doc gave is antibiotics that he has to take 2x a day for 10days. This poor guy was miserable! So now it’s Tuesday, but for me it just feels like a continuation of Monday because I still have not slept any, and P can barley keep his eyes open. The screaming has finally stopped and all this guy wants to do is snuggle and sleep. Don’t get me wrong, I double hate it that he felt horrible, but I sure did love all the snuggle time. He would actually let me rock him to sleep....normally when he gets tired he just wants his bed, but this time he wanted momma! So Tuesday night I get him to sleep and put him in his bed, praying that this little boy gets some good rest tonight and we don’t have another Monday night! Praise God he slept all night and was almost back to himself Wednesday morning! I sure hope that this is one of few, and not one of many ear infections!
