jonah’s day

Yesterday, I tried to keep a log of Jonah’s day, in case there was something to be gleaned from his patterns.

But asking a sleep deprived mom to keep track of anything is a dicey proposition. If only we had a secretary.

His day looked something like this; starting with the night before — and with activities organized into paragraphs roughly by hour and the whole thing only rather loosely accurate:

nurse burp cry fart poop cry nurse fall asleep burp

cry scream hyperventillate wet diaper keep crying

nap

nap

nap

nap

wet diaper nurse burp nurse nap fart

nap

nurse burp poop fuss diaper change (without crying!) melt down

wet diaper  wet diaper

nap nurse burp nurse nap wet diaper

melt down

nurse  burp nurse

melt down

nurse nap burp nap nurse

nurse

nap

nurse… and so on into this morning.

(There must have been some more burps and diapers in there, I think.)

Ah well. Onward…

    Yup, sounds about right.

    Trust me. They get much more interesting as the months go by, and things get a little less redundant – especially once they start crawling and generally becoming a little more independent. My littlest is sick, and I have to add suctioning, nose wiping, baby vicks rubbing, and MUCH more holding to my routine. Other than the gastric problems, he sounds fairly healthy. Hang in there.
