Here I sit at my computer at 2:00 in the morning. You know, Hana's doctor, Dr. Nail, discussed separation anxiety with me. He said it's something that usually starts around this age. I thought we had already been through it and it had passed. I guess not. Here we are. At least I received reassurance from him on this whole cry it out method that I just love so dearly. (sensing sarcasm?) He advised me not to pick her up, it'll just create a habit. I have talked to her, sang to her, and patted her on the back. She stops crying and almost falls asleep, but right as she's falling asleep, she starts crying again. I have checked on her several times and there is nothing wrong with her. No fever, no teeth as of yet, and no dirty diaper. Just a fussy baby. Why am I on the computer you ask? It's therapy, I guess! The office is two doors down from her room, so I'm right here. Once again, Joe has to open and close tomorrow, so I have to be the tough one here and let's face it, I'm just not good at this. It's good for me to have something to do in between checking on her. If I don't have anything to do, I'll give in easier.
Well, we learned a lot in our Infant CPR and Safety class. I highly recommend it for any new or expecting parents. Every time Joe and I take one of these classes, we come so close to talking ourselves out of going right before hand but then we end up learning so much and thoroughly enjoying the class. Jennifer got some really good pics while she babysat, so I'm excited about that!
Okay, I can't handle this anymore. I'm going to get her!
