Prayers answered!

We found a formula! It is such a relief. God truly answered our prayers. I was getting pretty worried about what we were going to feed her. She has had two pretty good nights. She did fuss for just a few minutes, but I think her teeth were bothering her. She has one that is right on the verge of cutting through. I will gladly take 5 minutes of fussiness compared to the 5-6 hours straight. Last night she even slept in her bed! Since we started this formula saga, she would only sleep in her swing. She ate at 10:15, I had her in her bed by 11:00, she slept until 2:45. She ate, then went right back to sleep. She was stirring around 6:30, so I did put her in her swing. She slept until 8:15! I am so thankful that she is feeling better. We appreciate all the prayers!

I did take Marleigh to a chiropractor/kinesiologist yesterday. We decided we'd try anything! My cousin Jenni said that he really helped her two oldest boys. I guess they were colicky & after Mike worked on them, the were a ton better. Of course he didn't pop anything on her, but when we left his office, Marleigh feel asleep before we left the city limits of Great Bend. We fed her when we got home & then she slept for almost three and a half hours!!! She hasn't napped more than forty-five minutes in weeks! She was so relaxed, too.

I am just so thankful & relieved our sweet baby is feeling better!

  1. So glad you found something! What a frustrating situation with a good ending. Before you know it though she'll be eating off your plate and walking around your house. That's what's going on at our house now! I enjoy reading your blog and looking at her pictures - she is a little heart breaker!
