It only took me how many weeks to figure it out? The cottage cheesy spit-up, the crying and fussing and squirming, the hiccups, needing to sleep semi-inclined? Baby has reflux! There are other signs too - we see the pediatrician tomorrow so we'll find out whether I might be right and whether Mini-Me can get some relief... hopefully it'll mean I can go back to saying "oh, she's such a good baby, not fussy at all!" and maybe we can start getting more sleep! Already I am less frustrated and more understanding/patient when she shrieks inconsolably.
Mini-Me slept in her swing last night for the first time, after an entire day of squirming and fussing. It was clear she was exhausted, and when she finally got to sleep she slept for six hours at a stretch! I woke up before she did and went to check on her, since I was alarmed and surprised that she was still out cold.
