Eisley only slept for an hour to an hour and a half at a time last night... at most. Thus, I got 30 minute naps throughout the night. It's not as satisfying as two hour stretches. She also didn't sleep any longer than that throughout the day so far.
Needless to say, I'm exhausted and have an awesome headache. I'm tired of having headaches everyday. It's quite draining. I drink tons of water, so I'm not dehydrated, but I do think it's linked to my back and stress, as well.
We went to the doctor today for Eisley's two week check-up. She's doing well. I am fairly confident they measured her wrong because according to her growth charts, she went from the 19th percentile to the 35th in a week and for weight she's between the 10th and 15th percentile. She's a little one. It's hard to rely on those growth charts when it's quite inaccurate how they weigh and measure. It's very subjective to whomever is working.
Everything was fine with her and we discussed her eyes again. I need to keep massaging the tear ducts and finish up the ointment, then can determine if I need something else. We did have to do the heel stick today, which was so sad. She was being so good, despite being hungry and they stuck her heel and she just wailed. I felt bad for her.
I did use the sleep wrap today, despite the heat, and Eisley loved it. She was totally warm and passed out or stopped crying whenever she was in it. She was a papoose!
We also stopped by my mom's school on the way home -- dad took me to the doctor. Mom was more than pleased to be able to show off Eisley.
Because I was with my dad and knew Eisley would need to eat while we were out, I had pumped today. I had also pumped on Monday. I decided to take both containers and a bottle, which was a good choice because Eisley was famished -- she downed one container, then I gave her the second and she finished it off, too!
Now she's racked out and I am going to take a nap, since I doubt I'll get to sleep much tonight... oh wait -- that's every night.
