You take the good, you take the bad....
INFOMERCIAL:
If you thought crying was great, well then you'll love new crying with tears. That's right, tears. Little rivulets of water can now stream from my baby's eyes as blood curdling screams emanate from her body. Folks, have you ever thought to yourself, "Sure, my baby cries a lot but it isn't quite unbearable enough?" Well, think no longer because new baby cries with tears make thinking impossible. Yes, baby cries with tears, nature's way of telling us we are bad parents.
Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse she starts smiling and you think everything is okay. Then, wham, tears. Now instead of just sweating profusely while crying she also has tears. It makes what used to be just clinical discomfort into emotional distress. It certainly makes diaper changing more fun.
For those that were keeping track, she is actually sleeping better. We've been putting her to sleep in her boppie pillow as if it were a laz-y-boy recliner. This means she can sleep from 4 - 6 hours straight. She goes to sleep at around 10 pm and wakes up around 4 am and then again around 8. While this should mean a lot less work in the middle of the night and only one of us should be sleepy that still hasn't happened. We are both still exhausted.
