This hourly crap must stop. She slept for TWO four-hour stretches today! Needless to say, she'll be up all night -- booo.
We went to the doctor today for her gunky eye. She's been given an ointment to try to see if it helps. I apparently have a UTI -- good thing I saw the doc!
Tonight Eisley spit up mass amounts, but luckily it was after she'd pooped and I was changing her, so the changing table was soaked and not me, my bed, or my chair.
Today, after we woke up, and I fed her, we did our first tummy time. I was prepared for crying and screaming, but didn't get any. It was surprisingly pleasant. We tried it with her laying with her chest on a folded blanket and she pushed with her legs and moved her head from side to side. I was quite impressed. I don't know when babies turn their head to both sides while on their tummies. I also tried it with nothing under her and she pushed her bum up into the air. She must be quite strong or agile. I hope she has her daddy's athleticism, however that means she'll be crawling and walking soon. I certainly hope she doesn't walk before Ty comes home! She'll be ten months by then, so we'll see.
After tummy time, I gave her a bath -- a real one. I put her Puj in the kitchen sink and got all her stuff. I tried her between towels at first, but it was too hard. I then put a bunch of warm water in it and sat her in it to help clean. I kept the water running into it, so it wouldn't get too cold, but I was also wary of making it too warm. However, she didn't get too warm. She definitely got too cold.
I dried her off and dressed her as quickly as I could to warm her back up. My mom had come home and took her so I could get ready for the doctor. Apparently, she took Eisley outside and she went to sleep as soon as she felt the heat! I showered and we got in the car to head out. About halfway to the doctor's, I asked mom where the diaper bag was... back home, since she'd forgotten to grab it! I had a nipple shield, pacifier, and burp cloth in my purse, but we had no diapers or wipes!
After we got to the doctor's office, my mom left to go to Central Market (since it was closest) to find some diapers and wipes. The diapers were too expensive for emergency diapers, so she found a lady with a baby and bummed a diaper off her, but did purchase some organic hippie-esque wipes.
I think she may be asleep now, so I will try to get some rest, myself.
